Economic Stimulus Programs

The "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009," created
to preserve and create jobs and promote economic recovery, will deliver money directly to states and local governments through September 30, 2010. The Act requires these funds to be used within a designated timeframe otherwise the money will be returned to the federal government for redistribution.

As Recovery Act monies make their way to Michigan, the League has asked the federal government to ensure that funding also be directed, in accordance with the act, to address local fiscal stress issues.  See the letter to Vice-President Biden and other reports on this issue.

The following websites were established to track projects and provide information:

- Federal Government

- Granholm Administration (shows16,000 project requests totaling $59b)  

The below links provide background information on the legislation and funding programs related to transportation, sewer and water, community development, energy, public safety and broadband development. 

League staff will continue to provide updated information through our blog, Inside 208 and Legislative Link e-Newsletter.
