ARPA Advisory Committee
The town ARPA committee has been charged with collecting proposals from our community for projects that benefit Starksboro. In order to aid our committee in our charge, we'd love to gather thoughts around what our townspeople value. Please take a moment to share your thoughts through the link below or by returning the hard copy mailer to the town office.
Ready to prepare a proposal? Please review and complete the following form.
The purpose of the ARPA Committee shall be to determine appropriate uses for up to $521,300 of the Town of Starksboro’s ARPA award and make a prioritized list of recommendations to the Selectboard for spending. Final decision on spending will be made by the Selectboard.
The ARPA Committee shall exist upon formation by the Selectboard in a duly warned meeting until the obligation of all ARPA funds or December 31, 2024, whichever comes first.
The ARPA Committee is a Town committee and shall comply with Open Meeting Law (OML). The meetings shall be conducted in person at the Town Clerk’s office and via Zoom.
