When: Lancaster City Council meeting, April 5.
What happened: Council was presented with a proposed five-year Community Development Block Grant plan for 2021-25 and annual action plan, which the city is required to submit to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Why it matters: The plans shape the way that much of the money Lancaster receives from HUD ends up being spent. Council was told during its committee meeting that city officials expect to see about $8.37 million in block grant funding over the next five years. Also anticipated is about $710,000 in Emergency Solutions grants, which the city has traditionally used for homeless prevention and emergency shelter.
Lancaster County and its 60 municipalities are expected to receive nearly $200 million in federal funding under the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act signed into law by President Joe Biden last Thursday.
Exactly when that money â an estimated $196.5 million total â will come and what it can be spent on remains unclear, as the U.S. Treasury Department has yet to issue guidance.
âWe are hoping it will be like the CARES Act,â said Pat Mulligan, budget director for Lancaster County.
Under CARES, the COVID-19 federal stimulus bill passed in March 2020, counties were given great flexibility in how to spend the money. Lancaster County commissioners directed roughly $4.4 million to help local governments, $9.7 million on public health operations and supplies, and $52 million to support businesses whose bottom lines suffered due to pandemic shutdowns.
What does justice look like when it is being sought in a wrongful death lawsuit against police and the government?
Does it mean money for the victimâs family? Or is it changes to laws or policies? Or some combination?
The mother of Ricardo Muñoz is seeking justice, according to attorneys who filed a federal civil rights lawsuit last month. Munoz was the mentally ill man killed by a Lancaster police officer in September.
The primary defendants in the motherâs lawsuit are the officer who shot Muñoz, the city and Lancaster County.Â
âSometimes a community must look beyond itself for justice, and thatâs what the federal courts are for. We are looking to shine a light upon the system failures in responding to this call for help,â one of the familyâs attorneys, Julie Murphy, said in a statement after the suit was filed last week.
