TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — Tucson's Mayor and Council has given a portion of the City’s American Rescue Plan Act Local Fiscal Recovery Funds to a Community Partner Grant Program.
$10.1 million was received for this year, with a total of $33.8 million to use over the next four years.
The grant application process opened in December and received more than 140 applications.
