Bridgeport may not be able to spend CARES funding until 2021 | News, Sports, Jobs

Times Leader Staff Writer BRIDGEPORT Due to the village of Bridgeport being in a state of fiscal emergency, it may have to wait until early next year before it can spend any of the $216,000 it received in Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act funding. Bridgeport Village Council discussed the CARES Act funding during Tuesday’s meeting, which was held via teleconference. Chris Kirby, fiscal officer for the community, said the village is unable to spend the funding until a recovery plan and a budget are finalized for the upcoming year, according to the funding’s stipulations. “There’s a lot of leg work that needs to be done. We can use the money after we pass a resolution tonight. I will have to put it into the EMS fund so that it can be used, however, we don’t know when we’ll be able to use it right away, hopefully by the end of January,” he said.
