a. Resolution approving American Rescue Plan Act appropriation
Ms. Cruver presented the staff report.
Mayor Spano stated he supports the recommendation. He clarified adoption of the plan does
not preclude council from making future changes to the allocations. Ms. Cruver confirmed that
is correct and stated council can make changes as a part of the 2024 budget process if they wish
to redirect funds. She added the action before the council ensures the remaining unobligated
ARPA dollars would not be subject to potential claw back by the federal government.
