Dear ____________________,

I believe it would be very useful to do an article on what funds (if any) our city can expect from the President's recent stimulus package and how specifically those funds might be used in ___________________.

For instance, will there be funds for homeowners to use for energy efficiency improvements? Can we expect improvements to our infrastructure, municipal buildings and schools? Will the arts see any support? How about benefits to local businesses? Are any of our local banks getting support? What about specific support for improved healthcare, welfare and crime prevention? Any transportion projects?

If we are expecting little funding, why? Is that a state decision? Has our council and mayor not requested it? Is it too early to give specifics and if so, when can we expect them?

Thank you for considering this suggestion.
