The American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act of 2021 is an economic stimulus bill passed by Congress and signed into law on March 11, 2021. It's designed to speed up the country's recovery from the economic and health impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Funds were distributed to cities on a per capita basis. Dunwoody’s allotment is $18,431,324. The ARP Act allows the city to take $10 million of its $18,431,321 ARP allotment as revenue replacement. In April 2022, the Dunwoody City Council approved using this option to create a fund called ARP 2 which would allow that $10 million to be used for the same intent as the original funding, but it would remove federal requirements and time frames from the spending.
