Topeka’s mayor and city council will consider setting aside at least $35 million to be used to finance infrastructure projects out of the federal COVID relief funding the city will receive. That body on Feb. 1 will take up a proposal that would take that step while directing the council’s policy and finance committee to create a process to distribute the rest of the $45,676,831 the city has been awarded through the American Rescue Plan Act. “Once developed, this process will be brought back to the full body for its consideration,” says the proposed resolution, which is sponsored by interim city manager Bill Cochran.
