The FMA Program is a nationally competitive annual FEMA grant program, and every year there is an allocation of federal funding that can be applied for and reviewed by FEMA. Prioritization is given to those structures listed as Severe Repetitive Loss and Repetitive Loss. Last year, the City had over 60 residents apply for the Flood Mitigation Assistance Program. FEMA is expected to announce award results later this summer.
Additional flood mitigation information and resources can be found on the City’s website.
