LAKE MARY, FLA. – FEMA has approved $1,180,207 in grant funding to
reimburse Dunes Community Development District for water main
relocation expenses after Hurricane Nicole. 

The storm caused extensive damage to a critical transmission water
main. This funding will install a water main in a new location away
from the shoreline. 

FEMA’s Public Assistance program provides grants to state, local,
territorial and tribal governments, and certain private nonprofit
organizations, including houses of worship, so communities can quickly
respond to and recover from major disasters or emergencies. 

Applicants work with FEMA to develop projects and scopes of work. FEMA
obligates funding for projects to the Florida Division of Emergency
Management after final approval. Once a project is obligated, FDEM
works closely with applicants to complete the grant process and begin
making payments. FDEM has procedures in place designed to ensure grant
funding is provided to local communities as quickly as possible.
