Beyond the fiscal cliff: how local governments can thrive in a post-ARPA world

In this webcast, panelists discuss how local governments can promote fiscal sustainability following the expiration of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRFs).

In addition to the ARPA fiscal cliff, local governments are experiencing a confluence of economic and fiscal challenges such as inflation, labor shortages, and the urban doom loop.

To help local governments face those challenges and promote fiscal sustainability, this webcast will provide insights on what strategies local governments can put in place, including reducing costs, generating revenue and managing risk.

You’ll learn about these timely topics:

• Understand how local governments have used SLFRF funds.
• Uncover opportunities to generate revenue at the local level to fund strategic initiatives.
• Implement cost-saving measures to balance budgets and free up funds for strategic initiatives.
• Manage fiscal risks by adopting financial policy best practices.
