E. Presentation and Discussion on Potential FFY 2025 Grant Application for

Regular Village Council Meeting · 2026-05-12 · agenda_item

The Village of Islamorada is planning to apply for a Small Cities Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) for FFY 2025. This grant is intended for a subaqueous transmission main crossing project near Channel #2. The Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority (FKAA) will fund the project, but the Village must submit the grant application. The Village Council has agreed to move forward with the application process, which will include public hearings. This project is currently in the planning and application review stage. The scope of work will likely involve subaqueous utility installation and related permitting and environmental reviews. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to engage early to understand the project's details as they develop, before final plans and bid packages are established. This early engagement can provide a competitive advantage for potential work related to this infrastructure project.
