Background and Discussion:
The Flood Control District has been awarded grants for Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) – Disaster Recovery and Mitigation. The CDBG projects will increase the volume of work for the Department of Economic Equity and Opportunity in its Worker & Community Protection Division for Section 3 and DBRA wage rate compliance services, and in its Inclusive Procurement Division for MWBE pre-award and post-award compliance services.
