It’s been a month since the Small Business Administration released its Paycheck Protection Program recipient list, and several Lenoir County business owners have expressed their concerns over possible mistakes.
Of the 93 Lenoir County businesses that received PPP loans, 17 had “zero jobs retained” listed next to their name. From a pharmacy to a workshop to a utility company to a dental practice, owners reached out to The Free Press for clarity or corrections.
One owner, Dr. Richard “Ricky” T. Carlyle, saw two red flags when he viewed the list with “zero jobs retained” and a $1 million to $2 million loan range listed next to his business, Carlyle Dental.
