total of $6,769,827 has initially been identified by the City as needed in order to repair and/or replace disaster impacted facilities. The Presidential declaration set for this disaster included a 75 percent cost share therefore leaving 25 percent of all dollars ($1,642,456 to date) obligated to the City. The estimated funds are identified in Categories A -G. Each Category is represented by different functions within the program. Categories A and B are considered Emergency Measures: Category A is specifically for Debris Removal and Category B is for Emergency Protective Measures. Categories C through G are for the Permanent Work groups. Category C is defined for Roads and Bridges. Category D is for Water Control Facilities. Category E addresses damages to Buildings, Contents, and Equipment. Category F is for all Utilities and Category G addresses Parks, Recreational and Other Facilities. Out of the all of the eligible activities under the Infrastructure Category that the City has identified to date, there is approximately $1,642,456 left that the City has to fund. This represents the amount not covered by insurance and anticipated FEMA payouts. It should be noted that the figures in the Categories listed below are currently estimates (except where noted as funds being received), reflecting what the City has identified as costs incurred as a result of the floods. It should be noted that much of the infrastructure unmet need within the City cannot be measured by utilizing FEMA requests for assistance as it is not related or directly attributable to literal damage to infrastructure, but rather a failure of existing infrastructure to prevent repetitive flooding and loss to housing stock. Improvements to the City's critical drainage and flood prevention infrastructure would assist in resolving the repetitive damages sustained to the housing stock due to flooding. 1 U, ';,,,a egoii y A .,Dc; II.rii its 11rc; iifiov The flooding of 2015 created thousands of tons of debris ranging from damaged houses and infrastructure to soils and sediments deposited in the City's storm water system.
