Have Your Say! How should Lynnwood spend COVID Recovery Funds?

Published on October 15, 2021

The City Council is beginning discussions on how best to use Lynnwood’s $10.1 million grant from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). This Federal legislation offers many eligible uses, such as: financial assistance to struggling households or businesses; making critical improvements to roads, sidewalks, or other infrastructure; emergency and affordable housing; and providing support services for people facing eviction. 

Now is your chance to Have Your Say: The City of Lynnwood and Lynnwood City Council are interested to hear the thoughts and opinions of Lynnwood residents.

There are two ways you can provide your input to the City as we make a plan for how to best utilize the federal relief funding.
