SUBJECT: DESIGNATION OF. AGENT FOR THE HAZARD MITIGATION G PROGRAM
(FEMA -935 -DR -CA)
RESOLUTION NUMBER: 92-151
DEPARTMENT: Parks and Recreation
BACKGROUND
Section 404 of P.L. 93-288 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and
Emergency Assistance Act of 1988 created the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program
(HMPG) to be implemented following the Presidential declaration of a major
disaster, with primary administrative responsibility assigned to the state.
HMGP funds are based on ten (10) percent of the federal share of the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) estimate of.all Damage Survey Reports (DSR's)
for public assistance permanent restoration work. The funding amount for the
Southern California floods is estimated to be approximately $3 million and will
be used for hazard mitigation projects which are cost-effective and
substantially reduce the risk of future damage, hardship, loss, or suffering
resulting from a major disaster.
The State Hazard Mitigation Officer (SHMO) has set the priorities for the type
of project proposals to be funded under the HMGP. These priorities are in
conformance with the state's flood hazard mitigation plan and the program
objectives. The state has identified four (4) risk reduction priority
categories: land use, construction/public infrastructure, public safety and
awareness and floodplain management.
Although applications proposing any legitimate mitigation solution are eligible
for funding, those conforming to the four categories listed above will be given
priority consideration in the final project selection.
It is necessary for the City Council to designate George Caravalho, City
Manager, as the authorized agent to execute for and on behalf of the City of
Santa Clarita, the application and to file it in the Office of Emergency
Services for the purpose of obtaining certain federal financial assistance under
Section 404 of Public Law 93-288 as amended by the Robert T. Stafford Disaster
Relief and Emergency Assistance Act of 1988.
