Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request by the Flood Control District for approval of an amendment to an agreement with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to extend the grant end date to September 30, 2026, and increase the local funding with unspent funds from the previous MAAPnext grants in the amount of $810,737 for the FY2020 Cooperating Technical Partners Flood Risk Project (Project ID Z100-00-00-P025, Countywide).
end
Background and Discussion:
This grant is the 3rd of 3 from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to support the MAAPnext effort. This grant includes funding for post-preliminary activities for the MAAPnext effort which have yet to start because the Preliminary data for MAAPnext has not yet been released by FEMA. This grant also includes funding for Project Management and Outreach activities which will remain necessary for the duration of the MAAPnext project. We are requesting a 2-year extension to the Period of Performance, to increase the local funding with unspent local funds remaining from the first 2 MAAPnext grants in the amount of $810,737, and to adjust the budget to move funds from completed tasks to ongoing and future tasks.
Expected Impact:
We will be able to continue to do MAAPnext work through September 30th, 2026, and update the grant budget to better reflect expenditures on completed tasks and estimated remaining effort on ongoing and future tasks.
Alternative Options:
The alternative would be that the period of performance ends on September 30, 2024, and the Flood Control District forfeits remaining FEMA grant funds.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
