Stimulus package

Mr. O'Connell is bringing up the stimulus package: To discuss an appropriate allocation of the sums ($32,931,000) which would be allocated to the Worcester Public Schools (for Title 1-A, construction and IDEA) through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, in the version approved on January 29 by the House Appropriations Committee.

There'd be money for Title I, construction (lots of roof repair, if you remember), and IDEA, he's asking that they talk about how that money would change things if it passed.

He's asking that the Administration start working on it. The Mayor asks about supplementing vs. supplanting
