Minneapolis leaders announces $5 million in gap funding for residents and businesses

To combat COVID-19, leaders must act quickly but our actions must also be informed by the best obtainable data. That’s how the City of Minneapolis has approached assembling its new set of gap funds to support renters, families and businesses.

The state legislature authorized over $300 million and the federal government advanced a record-setting $2 trillion package to support residents and businesses impacted by the pandemic. At the local level, we’re taking steps to make sure that our new programs complement, not duplicate, the work made possible by the new state and federal funding.

Mayor Frey in partnership with the City Council and City leadership are dedicating more than $5 million for Minneapolis residents and businesses hit hardest by this crisis
