American Rescue Plan (ARP) Non-Profit Funding
As part of the American Rescue Plan passed by the federal government in 2021, the City of Hendersonville received $4.5 million in relief funds to be spent by the end of 2024. As part of the FY22-23 budget process, the City Council held community input meetings where participants shared how they felt the city should allocate funds from the American Rescue Plan. At the conclusion of these meetings, the City decided to allocate $2 million to fund transformative community projects that address the needs brought up in these community input meetings.
