Loxahatchee Groves announces $240,000 FEMA stormwater master-plan grant
Summary
Town officials said they received a $240,000 FEMA grant (federal share $180,000, local match $60,000) to develop a stormwater master plan covering drainage, water quality and floodplain assessments; council will vote later whether to accept the grant.
The Town of Loxahatchee Groves announced it has been awarded a $240,000 FEMA stormwater master-plan grant to study town-wide drainage, water quality and floodplain concerns.
Chair told the council the federal share of the project is $180,000 and the town's local match would be $60,000; council members were told the project will produce a shovel-ready plan to pursue future federal funding for infrastructure repairs. The grant is intended to fund a master plan and supporting assessments rather than construction work.
Council members said they will review the grant details and vote on whether to accept the award at a future meeting. The study is expected to include water-quality assessments and floodplain analysis and to inform future capital projects.
