The Olympic & Paralympic Museum will get $3.5 million in American Rescue Plan Act dollars from the city. Pam Zubeck
The city of Colorado Springs has already promised $3.5 million from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) to the Olympic & Paralympic Museum and Hall of Fame, officials told City Council on July 12.
While giving a rundown of proposed spending from the city s $76 million allotment, officials acknowledged under questioning from Councilor Bill Murray that more than a third of the $9 million identified for business development/economic recovery was committed to the museum.
A majority of Councilors expressed support for Mayor John Suthers plan to distribute the money, which also contains other potentially controversial projects. Among those is conversion of parkland into low-income housing and an overhaul of the irrigation systems at the city s two golf courses.
