ARPA fully obligated; about $49 million remains to spend from Toledo recovery plan, staff says
Summary
Director Melanie Campbell told the finance committee all federal ARPA dollars have been obligated to projects under the Toledo recovery plan, with roughly $49 million remaining to be spent by the end of 2026; the committee also received the approved 2025 CIP report.
Director of Finance Melanie Campbell reported to the Finance Committee that all federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) dollars allocated to the Toledo recovery plan have been obligated and assigned to vendors, and about $49,000,000 of those obligated funds remain to be spent.
"The ARPA report reflects all of the projects within the Toledo recovery plan, from the start of the program through January 2025," Campbell said. She told the committee that obligations were required to be made by the end of 2024 and that the remaining obligated funds must be spent by the end of 2026.
Campbell said council had selected the vendors for those obligations prior to the end-of-year obligation deadline. She also presented the capital improvement program (CIP) report through January 2025, which the packet reflects as containing the approved 2025 CIP projects organized by department and showing closed-out projects removed from the list.
The committee received both reports; no formal actions or budget approvals were taken during the meeting. Staff invited questions and offered to provide additional detail about individual ARPA projects or CIP items outside the meeting.
Clarifying details: Campbell reported that all federal ARPA dollars have been obligated for Toledo recovery plan projects, with approximately $49,000,000 remaining to be spent against those obligations and a spending deadline of Dec. 31, 2026. The CIP report now reflects all approved 2025 projects and notes closed projects removed from active lists.
Ending: Staff will continue to report monthly on ARPA draws and CIP progress; no committee motions were filed at the meeting.
