HB 2799 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Establishes the "Missouri Small Business Property Crime Prevention Grant Program"

HB 2799 creates Missouri's Small Business Property Crime Prevention Grant Program, providing financial assistance to small businesses (defined as for-profit entities with fewer than 50 employees) for security improvements and repairs after property crimes. The program awards grants of up to $1,000 per fiscal year for physical security upgrades like surveillance systems, access controls, or storefront redesigns, or to cover repair costs from property crimes. Applications require detailed security needs and cost breakdowns, with grants distributed based on severity of needs and feasibility, administered by the Department of Economic Development from a dedicated state fund. The program expires automatically in 2034 unless renewed by the legislature.
