## General Information

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) designates Historically Underutilized Business Zones, or HUBZones, based on a combination of unemployment and income, among other things. The purpose of the HUBZone Program is to assist qualified small business concerns located in HUBZones to increase employment opportunities, investment and economic development. With a goal of awarding at least three percent of federal contract dollars to HUBZone-certified companies each year, the program fuels small business growth in HUBZones.

Enter your address or find qualified areas here - **https://maps.certify.sba.gov/hubzone/map**

## What the eligibility requirements for the program?

****To qualify for the HUBZone Program, your business must:
      - Be a small business according to  SBA size standards ;
      - Be at least 51% owned and controlled by U.S. citizens, a Community Development Corporation, an agricultural cooperative, an Alaska Native corporation, a Native Hawaiian organization, or an Indian tribe.
      - Have its principal office (where the majority of employees work) located in a HUBZone; and
      - Have at least 35 percent of its employees residing in a HUBZone.

## Program Benefits

The government limits competition for certain contracts to businesses in historically underutilized business zones. DLA and other agencies also provide preferential consideration to HUBZone firms in unrestricted procurements. HUBZone-certified businesses –
      - Are eligible to compete for HUBZone Program set-asides; and
      - Receive a 10 percent price evaluation preference in full and open contract competitions.

## Certification For the HUBZone Program

Before you can participate in the HUBZone program, you must be certified by the U.S. Small Business Administration. Review SBA’s ‘Top Tips for HUBZone Certification’ for more on how to get HUBZone certified --

**http://www.sba.gov/brand/assets/sba/resource-partners/hubzone-app-top-tips-508.pdf]**

## Maintain HUBZone Certification

You will need to recertify for the HUBZone program once a year and there is no limit to the length of time you can participate as long as you continue to qualify. SBA will conduct a program examination as part of the recertification process at least every three years to ensure your continued eligibility.

#### D. D. DAVIDGE d/b/a College Town Apartments v. Sam RELAN.

No. 11468.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, First Circuit.

July 11, 1977.

*760Autley B. Newton, II, Hammond, for D. D. Davidge, plaintiff-appellee.

Charles B. W. Palmer, Amite, for Sam Reían, defendant-appellant.

Before ELLIS, CHIASSON and PONDER, JJ.

PONDER, Judge.

This is an action for rent and damages to a leased apartment. Defendant has appealed the trial court’s award.

The only issue is whether the trial court manifestly erred in granting judgment in favor of the plaintiff.

We affirm.

Defendant leased an apartment from plaintiff and made a $100.00 deposit. After living in the apartment about four months and paying rent regularly, defendant vacated the premises, well in advance of the expiration of the lease.

Plaintiff contends that the apartment was left in such condition that it cost $873.00 to repair it. Mr. Dickey Davidge, the manager of the apartments, listed the damages in a sworn affidavit. Mr. Otis Brumfield, a part time maintenance man, who testified that he saw the apartment shortly after defendant moved, essentially corroborated Davidge’s testimony.

Defendant claimed that he left the apartment with only minor damage. He testified that one of plaintiff’s employees periodically inspected the apartment and even helped him move, without indicating any dissatisfaction with the condition of the apartment. This witness was not produced at the trial, however.

The trial court did not manifestly err in accepting the testimony of plaintiff’s witnesses over that of the defendant. *Canter v. Koehring Company,*La., 283 So.2d 716 (1973).

Defendant argues in brief that the court should have excluded the testimony of Mr. Davidge because it was hearsay. However, Mr. Davidge said he knew the condition of the apartment from observation. The court could reasonably have believed this and concluded that his testimony was not hearsay.

We are unable to understand defendant’s argument that the lower court did not properly apply LSA-C.C. Art. 2277, which reads as follows:

> “All agreements, relative to movable property, and all contracts for the payment of money, where the value does not exceed five hundred dollars, which are not reduced to writing, may be proved by any other competent evidence; such contracts or agreements, above five hundred dollars in value, must be proved at least by one credible witness, and other corroborating circumstances.”

If defendant refers to the lease, it is in writing and was introduced into evidence.

The agreement to pay for damages beyond reasonable wear and tear is expressly stated therein.

Furthermore, the plaintiff’s case was supported by the testimony of two witnesses the court found credible.

The court awarded $958.00 plus $100.00 attorney’s fees. Appellant has not briefed the amount of the award and we find no error.

The judgment of the trial court is affirmed at defendant’s cost.

AFFIRMED.
