Grant Award - Hazard Mitigation Plan Update
Department:Fire
Presenter:
Caption:Motion to accept the award for the Hazard Mitigation Plan Update Grant
from GEMA and to authorize the Mayor to execute the appropriate
documents.
Background:The Hazard Mitigation Plan forms the foundation for a community’s long-
term strategy to reduce disaster losses and break the cycle of disaster
damage, reconstruction, and repeated damage. The planning process is
as important as the plan itself. It creates a framework for risk-based
decision making to reduce damages to lives, property, and the economy
from future disasters. State and local governments are required to
develop and maintain a hazard mitigation plan as a condition of receiving
certain types of hazard mitigation disaster assistance, emergency and
non-emergency. The requirements and procedures for state and local
mitigation plans are found in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at
Title 44, Chapter 1, Part 201 (44 CFR Part 201).
Analysis:An experienced consultant assists various Augusta departments and the
municipalities of Hephzibah and Blythe in gathering up-to-date
information in order to identify hazards, assess current risk hazards, and
aid the Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee to update and implement
the current Hazard Mitigation Plan. This will ensure that State and local
government requirements have been met so that Augusta can continue to
receive certain types of hazard mitigation disaster assistance.
Financial Impact:Total approved cost is $60,000 with a federal share of $45,000, a state
share of $6,000, and a local share (in kind match/personnel time and its
funding from fund 101) of $9,000. Fund 220 will be used; org key will be
created by Finance upon approval and acceptance of grant.
Alternatives:None at this time
Recommendation:Approve the award for the Hazard Mitigation Plan Update Grant from
GEMA and to authorize the Mayor to execute the appropriate documents.
