Summary
The city has roughly $3 million in leftover federal ARPA money and interest with no rules on how to spend it. The new policy sets a framework — favoring one-time expenses, grant matches and strategic priorities — but alders removed a provision that would have allowed big Innovation Fund spending without a council vote.

Impact analysis
