Sedgwick County will receive $100,235,109 from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and is asking for the community’s input in how to spend it. ARPA was passed earlier this year to continue recovery from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The county says the funds can be used provide financial support to individuals, families, and businesses, and cover specific costs for school and local governments. “Your participation in this brief summary will help the Sedgwick County Board of County Commissioners develop an effective spending plan that focuses these funds where they are needed the most,” the county said in a news release.
