Stetson selectmen vote to allocate remaining ARPA funds under Revenue Loss
Summary
At the Nov. 13 meeting the Town of Stetson Selectmen unanimously voted to apply the remainder of their ARPA allocation under the Revenue Loss category; the board recorded no extended discussion and will reflect the allocation in upcoming budget work.
At their Nov. 13 meeting the Town of Stetson Selectmen unanimously voted to use the remaining American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds under the Revenue Loss category. The motion was made by Selectman Jody Lyford and seconded by Selectman Gene Trojano and carried without recorded dissent.
The board's action, recorded as a single unanimous vote (motion by Millard Butler, second by Tammy Buswell in the minutes), allocates leftover ARPA dollars under the federal program's permitted Revenue Loss use. The minutes show no further debate or amendments to the motion.
ARPA money has been used by municipalities for a range of pandemic-related revenue and expense issues; the minutes do not specify a line-item plan for the newly allocated funds. The board did not attach conditions or next-step instructions in the recorded motion. Danielle Davis, the meeting clerk, is the contact noted elsewhere in the minutes for follow-up administrative tasks.
The vote finalizes the board's previously discussed ARPA wish list direction and will be reflected in forthcoming municipal accounting and budget documents. No specific projects or expenditures tied to this allocation were listed at the meeting.
