ST. LOUIS COUNTY (KMOX) - St. Louis County Executive Sam Page is hoping to use the county's federal stimulus money to avoid budget cuts next year.

Page is proposing a $694 million spending plan for 2022 that relies on the use of most of the nearly $193 million in federal money from the American Rescue Plan Act.


The federal funds would be used to shore up public safety and public health services over the next two years.

Page says the move would allow the county to avoid any cuts through 2024.
