In a recent letter to residents, Berkeley Lake Mayor Lois Salter shared the city anticipates receiving approximately $800,000 in American Rescue Plan Act funding from the federal government.
“I think we will probably spend most of that on stormwater infrastructure, but I will keep you informed as we explore possibilities,” noted Mayor Salter.
The city also hopes to use some of the funding to purchase a small piece of property on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard that is contiguous to the city’s greenspace.
