Allocation of ARPA Subtitle M Funding
Under the previously approved M&C 22-1076, it was indicated that both the City and Tarrant County would be utilizing American Rescue Plan Act
(ARPA) dollars under Section 603(c)(1)(C) of Title VI of the Social Security Act (added by ARPA) to fund their respective participation in the
Innovation Hub. On April 11, 2024, M&C 23-0284 amended M&C 22-1076 after Tarrant County elected to provide their $2,000,000.00 allocation
from another funding source rather than ARPA dollars.
The provision of government services impacted is a specifically identified use of ARPA dollars under Section 603(c)(1)(C) of Title VI of the Social
Security Act (added by ARPA). Treasury Department guidance specifically notes that these State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds can be
deployed for the provision of government services in support of the economic recovery of the City and community.
Approval of this M&C will allocate $596,275.00 for Fiscal Year 2024 in the American Rescue Plan Act project in the Grants Operating Federal
Fund budget for transfer to the Grant Cap Projects Federal Fund. Necessary reporting and documentation requirements will be followed to ensure
the City can comply with all reporting requirements of the ARPA legislation. ,
