Jackson County renews two hazard‑mitigation grant programs to maintain FEMA eligibility
Summary
The commission approved renewal of two hazard‑mitigation grant program designations required every five years so the county may apply for FEMA and state mitigation funding after disasters. Staff said the renewals preserve eligibility for future grant funding for mitigation activities.
Jackson County commissioners voted July 27 to renew participation in two hazard‑mitigation grant programs that must be updated every five years to preserve eligibility for FEMA and state mitigation grants. County staff described the renewals as administrative steps that allow the county to continue working with state and federal partners to apply for mitigation funds following qualifying events.
The chair opened the item for questions; staff invited director Josh (mentioned by staff) to answer operational questions. After a brief discussion, the commission approved the renewals by voice vote. The renewals were presented as routine but necessary to retain grant eligibility for future disaster recovery and mitigation projects.
