City of Greensboro issued the following announcement on Dec. 18.
The federal American Rescue Plan allocated $59.4 million over two years to the City of Greensboro for COVID-19 relief and economic recovery. Through an application process, the City is reviewing 237 applications totaling more than $424 million for this year’s allocation.
In recognition of the tremendous community interest in Greensboro’s first year ARP funding, the City of Greensboro is giving applicants the opportunity to revise their applications based on the City’s available funding. Applicants will receive an email from the City with a link to submit a modification request. Those requests should be completed by January 7, 2022.
“The need in our community far exceeds what the City is able to give. We want to give organizations the opportunity to review their proposals to make them as competitive as possible within our available funding. We are pleased that through federal funding we are able to fund organizations and projects within the city that we normally couldn’t do through the regular budget process,” said Mayor Nancy Vaughan.
Applicants are not required to submit a revised request. If the proposed program or project cannot be completed with less funding no further action needs to be submitted to the City.
