Proposer: Lynne E. Tejeda, General Manager & CEO Department: Finance - Purchasing
Agenda Item #: 8a
AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Authorize Submission of Application for Community Block Development Grant to Fund Redundant Power Feed REQUESTED ACTION: Motion to Authorize Submission of Application, through the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) Office of Disaster Recovery, for a Community Block Development – Mitigation (CBDG-MIT) Grant to Fund Installation of a Redundant Power Feed to the Key West Airport and Nearby Customer Housing DISCUSSION: The DEO’s office of Disaster Recovery supports long-term housing, infrastructure and economic development needs in Florida communities impacted by disasters. The Rebuild Florida General Infrastructure Program has $475,000,000 available for projects furthering these objectives. Staff believes that providing a redundant power feed to the Key West Airport and customer housing in the area meets the requirements for grant funding. The installation of a redundant feed would increase reliability and decrease post-disaster electrification time. KEYS requested and received letters of support for this project from both the City of Key West and Monroe County. The CBDG-MIT Grant does not require matching funds. Staff estimates the cost of the project to be approximately $1,500,000.00, and proposes to spend approximately $3,750.00 for consultant support in ensuring a compliant and competitive application submission. SUPPORTS STRATEGIC PLAN: Goal #1 – Continually improve the customer experience regarding reliability and service; Strategy #1.2.4 Develop plan to storm harden distribution feeds to critical Government Facilities. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Total Estimated Cost: $3,750.00 Budgeted: Yes Source of Funds: 1-30-923105-50-00000
