Burlington Board Of Finance Reviews Use Of ARPA Funds In 2022 City Budget

4:20 The Burlington, Vermont City Council’s Board of Finance held a special session Monday evening to review two items. The panel reviewed the proposed 2022 budget, which includes some federal COVID relief funds, and discussed the status of a citywide property reappraisal. Burlington officials expect to receive $27 million in American Rescue Plan Act, or ARPA, federal relief funds.  During a special meeting of the Board of Finance, which is comprised of city councilors, there was a presentation on budget goals and principles and an outline of how the funds could be used. Mayor Miro Weinberger, a Democrat, expects there will be some discomfort with the amount of ARPA funds and said part of the reason for the meeting is to help determine how much of the federal dollars should be used in the 2022 budget.
