The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) was signed
into law in February 2009. The legislation commonly referred
to as the Stimulus Bill includes over $27 billion in funding
for transportation. Some of that funding will reach Tompkins
County through New York State. Stimulus funding will also
affect other government service areas such as housing, energy,
water and wastewater management, etc. The ITCTC coordinated
the planning effort to identify candidate transportation projects
for stimulus funding in Tompkins County.
