City of Chicopee - American Rescue Plan Act - Community Input
Under the Federal American Rescue Plan Act, the City of Chicopee is slated to receive $28.8 million dollars. To guide the investment of these funds, Mayor Vieau has established a nine member Advisory Committee. The Committee's first action is to solicit input on potential ARPA projects and programs.
Below is a broad framework of projects eligible under the ARPA. Final regulations have not been released but the US Department of Treasury has provided this list of uses that meet the federal objectives "to help turn the tide on the pandemic, address its economic fallout, and lay the foundation for a strong and equitable recovery"
