PORTSMOUTH — The city expects to receive about $13.2 million in federal funds from the latest stimulus package, but it’s not yet clear how the millions can be spent.
City Manager Karen Conard said the federal government is still developing the guidelines that will direct New Hampshire municipalities how they can spend the money.
Despite not having the guidelines yet, city staff is preparing for when the “guidance does come,” Conard said Monday.
“It will behoove us to have a list of potential projects and uses,” Conard said.
The city is expected to receive about $13.2 million from the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations (CARES) Act of 2021.
