April 21, 2026 City Council Regular Session · 2026-04-21 · agenda_item

This item concerns the management of disaster relief funds under the Disaster Relief and Recovery Act of 2018. The program, known as Sub-Recipient Management Costs (SRMC), is funded 100% by federal grants through the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program. It aims to help sub-recipients efficiently manage grants and complete recovery activities on time. This is an interim policy update, meaning the framework for managing these funds is under review. The work would involve administrative and oversight tasks related to grant management and project completion. Local businesses specializing in financial management, grant administration, and project oversight could find opportunities to support sub-recipients in navigating these federal programs. Engaging early allows businesses to understand the program requirements and position themselves to offer services as the policies are finalized.
