Commissioner seeks update on FEMA-funded bridge repair; staff to follow up with project manager
Summary
A commissioner asked for the current status of a FEMA-related bridge repair project and whether additional repairs and documentation could be added to the grant for reimbursement; staff said they will seek clarification from the project development manager (PDMG) and report back.
A county commissioner asked for an update on the status of a bridge repair project tied to FEMA reimbursement and said additional repairs after initial work were flagged by an inspection. County staff said the bridge structure is complete but that follow-up repairs were required after inspection and that the county would ask the project development manager (PDMG) and grant administrators whether those additional costs could be added to the grant.
Staff said they are scheduled to discuss the grant process with the PDMG at a meeting and will seek clarification on whether the county can add costs for the additional repairs and how to document and reopen the claim for reimbursement. The commissioner asked whether any other action was needed from him on FEMA documentation; staff said they were not aware of further immediate action but will follow up.
Ending: Staff committed to asking for clarification from the PDMG and to relay the guidance to the commissioner so the county can either pursue additional reimbursement or close the matter if it is not eligible.
