DISCUSSION On January 4, 1997 the governor's office declared the County of San Luis Obispo a disaster area in response to flooding and damage from the winter stone. This declaration entitles the City for recovery of storm related costs. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FMA) will reimburse 75% of eligible cost incurred, and the State Office of Emergency Services(OES)will reimburse the remaining 25%. The City is required to file the Designation of Applicant's Agent Resolution (Attachment A) approved by the Council to start the Federal and State cost recovery process. As with past declared disasters, FEMA/OES will assign the City an inspection team to survey damage and prepare the Damage Survey Reports(DSR's), which are the official requests for cost recovery. The incident period for this disaster is being held open until March 31, 1997 in the event that we receive additional heavy rains and resulting damage. FISCAL IMPACT Fortunately, the City will be requesting a relatively small amount of cost recovery from the January storm, and FEMA/OES has designed a new streamlined process to help us quickly receive at least 50% of our requested amount even before they send in the FEMA/OES survey team. The City incurred the following estimated costs related to general city-wide storm response: Reimbursable personnel costs $ 3,200 Equipment usage 2,000 Supplies(sandbags) 600 Whale Rock pipeline repair 8.500 Total $14,300 Attachments A.
