United States President Joseph "Joe" Biden implemented a landmark of historic funding signed in March 2021 as The American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act. ARP provides emergency funding for state, local, territorial, and tribal governments to address the devastating impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and instantly became a major opportunity to improve public health and economic commitment. The plan assists households, small businesses, and nonprofits to advance a pathway for services incorporating equity, supporting communities, and increasing housing stability while promoting public trust. The funds also aid in impacting tourism, travel, and hospitality. The purpose of the ARP was to fight the COVID-19 pandemic and support families and businesses by enhancing their public health and economic crises. The City continues to expect a positive outcome to build a strong, resilient, and equitable recovery by bridging investments that support long-term growth, opportunity, and sustainability.
