The Dover Technical Assistance Program (DTAP), created by the Dover Economic Development Department, is an initiative designed to provide assistance for some of the most commonly discussed needs of Dover businesses via the use of third-party providers such as staffing agencies, marketing/branding firms, professional service providers, professional architect/design services, etc. This program encourages businesses to solve their day to day issues with the help of this professional guidance.
DTAP is funded annually through an appropriation of local option sales tax revenue and is distributed to applicants that have projects addressing need, meet the eligibility requirements, fulfill the program guidelines, and support the goals of the program.
The Town of Dover will rebate 75% of the approved project’s total cost (PTC) to a maximum grant award of $2,500.00. PTC includes cost of outside professional assistance/implementation. No ‘sweat equity’ is includable. $25,000 in grants will be approved this year.
