SALINE County issued the following announcement on Sept. 23.
AMERICAN RESCUE FUND RFP RELEASED.
The Saline County Quorum Court unanimously passed a Resolution in support for the process developed to consider proposals for the roughly $24 Million in American Rescue Plan Act (ARP) funds received by Saline County. Saline County will be guided by five (5) core principles: ARP funds should be utilized in such a way to pursue large, transformative projects ($1M+); Projects should positively impact ALL of, or as much of as possible of, Saline County; ARP funds should NOT be used for projects hard to quantify or have the potential to sit vacant, awaiting outcomes outside the control of the Quorum Court; Projects should NOT create continuous financial obligations for future Quorum Courts, to the greatest extent possible; and, Proposals that include partnerships with other local governments, state governments or political subdivisions, or public-private partnerships that maximize the potential for a project are preferred.
