Commissioner outlines plan to shortlist projects for $11 million in flood funding
Summary
A commissioner said he solicited municipalities for flood-repair requests and expects to shortlist projects to allocate an $11,000,000 pool; he will follow up with municipalities to gauge severity and return with recommendations in weeks.
A commissioner (speaker 2) told the group he emailed municipalities asking them to submit flood-related project requests and set a short deadline; he said he will review submissions, follow up to gauge severity and then shortlist projects to allocate an $11,000,000 funding pool. He estimated he would return to the commission in two to four weeks with recommendations.
Commissioners discussed logistics and state involvement in payment and reimbursement. Staff noted uncertainty around the state's payment process and suggested the county could front costs and seek reimbursement; one commissioner said DHCD typically processes reimbursements in about 60 days.
