In this role, Mr. Landon provides program management and strategic leadership to guide the investment of the County’s direct allocation of the ARPA Local Fiscal Recovery Funds. Additionally, he will also help support navigating the County, other local governments, and the community in leveraging all funding opportunities associated with ARPA.
