Hood River Council To Consider CARES Act Funds

Hood River City Councilors will be discussing the best way to use about $200,000 in federal CARES Act funds during their meeting Monday evening.  Among possible uses for the money:  increasing child care availability, mobile shelters for the homeless, grants to hotels that lost business during a temporary lodging ban, small business aid, utility payment assistance, and supporting the United Way Community Assistance Fund.  City Manager Rachael Fuller said the City will be looking for partners to help administer funding distribution.  The CARES Act monies are separate from a local economic relief fund established in the City’s fiscal year 2020-21 budget.  Monday evening’s meeting begins at 6 p.m. online, and log-on information is available at the City of Hood River’s website.
