CAC receives $12 million in additional funds from federal pandemic grant
by Aaron Dorman | Casa Grande Dispatch
The Central Arizona College Governing Board has pushed backed approving its budget by one month, for a very fortuitous reason.
The school was notified that it would be receiving $12 million in grant funding from the American Rescue Plan Act, the third pandemic-related relief bill from Congress.
“We felt it was prudent if we hold off formal adoption of the fiscal year budget until June,” said Vice President of Business Affairs Chris Wodka. “Revenues can be spent in the next year, and we should republish the budget. Legally there’s still plenty of time to approve it.”
