BACKGROUND:
Background
Due to the impacts of Hurricane Milton, Nicole & Idalia, the City identified a number of homes that were flooded. Working with our consultant, Pegasus Engineering, the City was able to present several applications to the Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) for consideration under the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP). FDEM administers on behalf of FEMA HMGP projects.
The existing residential structure at 3101 Riverhead Drive is in the Lake Windsor/ Elston Lake drainage basin. The Lake Windsor/ Elston Lake watershed is classified as a closed (land-locked) drainage basin that has an extensive history of structural and roadway flooding.
The property owner requested the City assist in mitigating future flood events by acquisition & demolition of this property. The City applied to FDEM in June 2024 for consideration of this project. The FDEM Agreement presented prior to this request, shall upon full execution provide the City the authorization to proceed with project implementation
