July 21, 2020 - SACRAMENTO – Senator Andreas Borgeas (R-Fresno) has announced that the California Department of Finance (DOF) notified the Legislature on how $1.8 billion from California’s share of the federal Coronavirus Relief Fund will be allocated to counties and cities. 

“It is our job at the state level to empower counties and cities to fight the COVID-19 pandemic at the local level,” said Senator Borgeas. “I will continue to advocate for state support for our local communities. We must put an end to this pandemic, protect public health, get our economy back on track and get our kids back in school when safe.”  

The letter from DOF includes allocations for each city and county in California. The funds will be remitted in phases, with the first allocations each consisting of one-sixth of the total amounts available to each entity. The letter states that first installments will be disbursed on August 1 and September 1, and the third will be sent in October of this year.
