WELCOME TO THE CITY OF TAMPA AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT (ARRA) WEBSITE

Our nation, state and city are experiencing very tough economic times and we are grateful for the opportunity to pursue federal and state stimulus dollars for projects that are designed to jump start the economy, create jobs, reduce operating costs, improve the environment and enhance the quality of life for our community. We are committed to aggressively searching for all appropriate and available grant opportunities that may result in additional federal stimulus dollars to accomplish projects in the City of Tampa.

Our goal is to target stimulus funds toward key projects that can be started quickly and provide an excellent return on investment for the City. During this process, we will manage stimulus funds responsibly so that we maintain close control on how the funds are being spent to ensure accountability, transparency and verifiable results.

This website will allow us to quickly share information with you on the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), and will provide gateway resources pointing to the availability of stimulus funding opportunities and eligibility requirements. Please check back often to learn what new opportunities are available and how the City of Tampa is spending the federal and state stimulus funds we receive.
