ARPA USES
COVER MEMO
TO: County Board of Supervisors
FROM: Ken Witt, County Administrator
DATE: November 7, 2023
AGENDA ITEM: Resolution for Amendment #5 to the 2023 Budget for ARPA Uses

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
As additional ARPA funded projects close below budget, the County will need to reallocate the
funds to other projects so all federal ARPA dollars are accounted for by the end of 2024.
We have identified several projects for immediate use of the ARPA funds and some
contingency projects as additional funding becomes available.
