The identified Information Technology Solutions (ITS) capital project was initially approved by City Council on May 24, 2022 by M&C 22-0366 after being determined to be a qualified priority by City Management for ARPA funding as approved by the City Council in M&C 21-0445 on June 22, 2021. Upon approval by Council, the requested funds will be allocated to the ARPA for the ITS Initiatives project (City Project No. 103746).
