12 <br /> 1 Commissioner Dorosin asked if all the ARPA funds are going to administration, as <br /> 2 opposed to the cost of emergency housing assistance. <br /> 3 Travis Myren said the budget spends $3.2 million of the $28 million total that is allocated <br /> 4 to the County, and Housing has a large request in for direct payments from the ARPA funds as <br /> 5 well. He said there will be a discussion about the direct ARPA payments at the Work Session <br /> 6 on June 3, 2021, and a potential decision on June 15, 2021 about how the balance of those <br /> 7 funds are allocated. <br /> 8 Commissioner Dorosin asked if the balance of the funds would be included in this <br /> 9 budget, or if it would have to be a budget amendment. <br /> 10 Travis Myren said the balance would be part of a budget amendment. He said staff is <br /> 11 working through all of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)funds, which are not <br /> 12 exhausted at this point, and have money in the fund to cover the next several months. He said <br /> 13 if the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) wants to recharge the fund, it would have to be <br /> 14 used from the other ARPA funds going through the department request process. <br /> 15 Commissioner Dorosin asked if the 12 temporary positions are currently being utilized to <br /> 16 allocate the funds that are there, as opposed to frontloading the positions in expectation for <br /> 17 future funds. <br /> 18 Travis Myren said there are 8 people working currently and 4 vacancies, but the <br /> 19 positions are currently needed.
