The city of Hendersonville will hold two workshops in November to discuss potential uses for its share of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds. The $1.9 trillion federal economic stimulus bill was passed in March to speed up the country’s recovery from the economic and health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The city of Hendersonville’s share is estimated to be around $5.9 million and is expected to go toward investments in water, sewer or broadband infrastructure. The city has received its first allocation of $2.9 million, and is expected to receive a second payment in 12 months. None of the funds have been spent.
