Cook County, IL Equitable Distribution Model CARES Act Funds
Cook County's Bureau of Finance partnered with the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning to develop an Equitable Distribution Model for CARES Act Funding. The Equitable Distribution Model considered the rising COVID-19 related costs experienced by all municipalities and the capacity of various municipalities to respond to those costs in light of unequal investments in those communities. The model utilized statistical analysis, demographic data, and regional cooperation to distribute funds.
