The U.S. Department of
Treasury, as authorized under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic
Security (CARES) Act, established a $150 billion relief fund to aid states,
local, and tribal governments with populations over 500,000 people in their
efforts to respond to the nationwide public health emergency caused by the
coronavirus pandemic and COVID-19 outbreak. Funding has been allocated from
Treasury to the State of Minnesota, and, in turn, the City of Arden Hills as
pass-through funds. Based on eligibility, small businesses physically located
within the City of Arden Hills are eligible to apply for funding.
