LCOG’s Business Loan Program was designed to package, administer, and service commercial lending activities in Lane County. The program provides assistance to Lane County businesses to borrow from one of many government loan resources. The primary programs are the U.S. Small Business Administration 504 loan program and LCOG’s Rural Business Development Fund.

The low-rate, long-term financing improves cash flow and provides continuing funds for future growth. Loans can range from $50,000 to $1,000,000 at a rate that is typically below the market rate of interest.
