Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
The city is the recipient of $180.9 million through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) to be used to address the public health and negative economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Toledo Recovery Plan framework (authorized by Ordinance 530-21), which outlines the city's projects that will be funded through ARPA, includes $6,000,000 for youth and recreational programming and $12,000,000 for development and renovation of park and recreation facilities. Over the past four years this funding has been used to revitalize dozens of parks spaces and to engage with thousands of our City's youth. Through careful planning and effective execution of this work we have small remaining balances in several of the project and program accounts. This legislation would allow the Department to allocate those funds to perform additional work in our parks and with our youth.
