Metro cities receive millions in ARPA funding <br />These cities in the Twin Cities metro area received millions through the <br />American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA), also referred to as the COVID-19 <br />Stimulus Package or American Rescue Plan. <br />Bloomington <br />Eagan <br />Blaine <br />Coon Rapids <br />Apple Valley <br />Maple Grove <br />Maplewood <br />Prior Lake <br />Golden Valley <br />Hastings <br />West St. Paul <br />Stillwater <br />North St. Paul <br />Mahtomedi <br />Jim Foster, Star Tribune • Source: Data collected by the Star Tribune <br />$11.4M <br />$6.9M <br />$6.8M <br />$6.6M <br />$5.6M <br />$5.1M <br />$4.5M <br />$2.9M <br />$2.4M <br />$2.4M <br />$2.3M <br />$2.1M <br />$1.3M <br />$0.9M <br />Cities can use their ARPA funds to replace lost revenue of up to $10 <br />million and spend it on public services like road projects, water, sewer, <br />health services, administration, police and fire and environmental <br />remediation. <br />Savage officials hired a temporary staffer for $20,000 to survey residents <br />on how to spend the city's ARPA funds of $3.53 million, City <br />Administrator Brad Larson said. The staffer attended community events <br />and met with businesses and community groups, even setting up shop at a <br />grocery store, and will now write guidelines for programs created by the <br />funding. <br />Larson said the City Council last week approved allocating the money for <br />mental health support, affordable housing programs, a park irrigation <br />project, small business assistance and expanding the local library's front <br />meeting room. <br />"One of the key messages we heard from the [city] council was that they <br />want to focus on projects that we would not been able to have done but for <br />the ARPA funds," he said.
