OSSIPEE — Following the acceptance by the Carroll County delegation of $4.7 million in American Rescue Plan Act funds last Thursday, the county register of deeds asked them for about $250,000 to beef up cybersecurity of which $200,000 may come from ARPA and the balance from the registry’s existing  budget.
The delegation, consisting of 15 state representatives, agreed to hammer out with Carroll County commissioners a plan to spend the money. The delegation also decided to give the commissioners $20,000 in ARPA funds to hire a consultant to review the spending plan to ensure that items on it meet federal criteria. Â
