Mayor Kathy Sheehan at the STEAM Garden (279 Central Avenue) August 2, 2023 talks about Albany's American Rescue Plan Act-funded Small Business Vitality Assistance program.

The city of Albany has launched an online payment tracker to monitor American Rescue Plan Act payments made to local organizations.  

Chief City Auditor Dorcey Applyrs says the tracker, which is now live, aims to enhance public transparency.

“I thought as well as my team, that it would be a great idea to have this tool available, not just to the public, who want to know how the city is spending these historic resources once in a lifetime resources, but also for our recipients who have questions, they can go on the webpage and see what's happening when it comes to their grant funding,” said Applyrs. 

In 2021 Albany received more than $80 million dollars in American Rescue Plan Act funding.
