Congress recently approved additional disaster supplemental appropriations of$633,485,000 for the Community Development Block Grant-Mitigation (CDBG-MIT) Program for Infrastructure Mitigation. The Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) will develop an Action Plan to prioritize program funds and has asked the Hurricane Irma impacted region to provide feedback on priority large-scale, regional infrastructure resilience projects. The CDBG-MIT Action Plan must be approved by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). It also has to be tailored to meet the Code of Federal Register(draft attached). Ovid Solutions in partnership with the South Florida Regional Planning Council is developing the Long-term Post Disaster Recovery Strategy which will: - Include the list of prioritized projects for potential funding - Detail the long-term recovery roles and responsibilities which were performed by Monroe County Departments in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma and continue to the present We seek guidance and prioritization from the BOCC on large scale, regional resilience projects which could be funded over a twelve-year implementation schedule using CDBG-MIT funding. This is a new program and DEO and HUD will both be looking for innovative projects that meet the national objectives of the CDBG program. We also seek guidance on issues which will be incorporated in the Long-term Recovery Strategy document.

Local governments impacted by Hurricane Irma have been asked to submit project ideas to the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity(DEO)to be considered as they develop an action plan that will guide how this money is spent.The state must submit this plan no later than February of 2020 and work on it has already begun. DEO has suggested they are looking for regional projects with high impact.This likely means that they would like to see multi-jurisdictional projects that will provide high impact results in the community. As part of the development of the Monroe County Post-Disaster Redevelopment Strategy,county and city staff have been working to develop project ideas to be considered for this funding and any other sources that may still be available to support Hurricane Irma recovery.This report contains a summary of the projects developed.Staff is seeking direction from the Board of County Commissioners to help prioritize these projects for funding and brainstorm other projjeets ould ItG funded through caktb program.A project prioritization worksheet has been developed and is included as an attachment to this document. Based on feedback from the Board,these projects will be incorporated into the final Monroe County Post-Disaster Redevelopment Strategy which will be presented as a draft to the Board at a subsequent meeting.
