TRUMBULL, CT Trumbull has received more in coronavirus-related reimbursements than it submitted to federal and state officials thanks to a change in a state formula.
Trumbull submitted coronavirus-related expenses to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Initially state officials directed towns to wait until FEMA gave approval on reimbursement before asking for reimbursement through the state s Coronavirus Relief Fund, said Finance Director Maria Pires during the Jan. 14 Board of Finance meeting. The state gave us more money than we submitted for reimbursement because they changed their formula method, they used a population formula instead of actual expenses, Pires said.
