In 2021, the Milwaukee County American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Task Force approved expenditure categories as well as a process to review and recommend funding allocations for consideration by the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors. Upon recommendation of expenditure category allocations by the ARPA Task Force, Service Area subgroups were established to generate service area allocation recommendations as demonstrated in the process chart shown here.
Expenditure categories represent allowable uses of ARPA funds per federal guidance, strategic alignment with Milwaukee County goals, and awareness of the County’s fiscal position, community needs and challenges. The purpose of each expenditure category is summarized below.
Milwaukee County is dedicated to identifying strategies that will help the community recover from impacts of the pandemic and improve the organization’s fiscal health. This dashboard displays Milwaukee County's ARPA allocation progress across the four expenditure categories: Community Support, Revenue Loss Recovery, COVID-19 Mitigation and Fund Administration.
