Council introduced Bill 5, an amendment moving $4,792,190 within Fund 29 (ARPA), and indicated the item will be discussed with public comment at the next legislative meeting. Councilmembers also introduced a small Korean War Memorial grant-budget amendment for $8,085.

The York City Council introduced a budget amendment (Bill 5) to reallocate $4,792,190 within Fund 29 (ARPA). The measure was read into the record as an introduction and will be scheduled for future discussion and public comment at the next legislative meeting.

Councilmembers flagged the broader context of remaining ARPA funds: one councilmember said the city has about $10 million in remaining ARPA resources this year and that roughly $5 million in line-item adjustments are being proposed; members invited public input ahead of the next meeting when the bill will be considered in detail.

Separately, Bill 4 was introduced to record an $8,085 grant from the York County Community Foundation for a Korean War Memorial endowment fund; that bill was presented as an introduction as well and will be acted on later according to the usual legislative schedule.

Both introductions were noted on the agenda; council did not take final votes on either bill during the session. Officials reminded residents of deadlines for submitting agenda items and of the scheduled next legislative meeting on 04/21/2026 when the public may comment on Bill 5.
