San Diego County supervisors voted Tuesday to use the projected balance of federal COVID-19 relief money to launch long-term programs
San Diego County has spent about a third of its federal pandemic relief money and will set aside some remaining funds for long-term housing and mental health programs, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors decided Tuesday.
Last year, county officials designated $311.5 million — almost half of the county’s total federal pandemic relief from the federal package — to cover COVID-19 response efforts, such as testing, tracing and vaccination. In other cases, the board decided on broad spending priorities but asked staff to return with detailed program proposals.
The remaining $79 million of the projected balance would go to seed long-term programs that supervisors said could provide public benefits for years to come.
