AMARILLO, Texas (KFDA) - The U.S. Treasury Department opened an online portal for counties to begin requesting their share of the $2 trillion American Rescue Plan, and the portal shows Potter and Randall counties combined being eligible for nearly $50 million.
The amount is based on the population of the counties.
According to the Texas Association of Counties, half of the money is available this month, and half will be available 12 months after the first payment.
Counties can use the money to cover costs to respond to the pandemic and revenue shortfalls like hiring and keeping personnel, repairing or investing in water, sewer and broadband infrastructure.
