BACKGROUND AND FISCAL IMPACT:-
This legislation will authorize the appropriation and transfer of FEMA funds to various other funds in order to reimburse various funds for expenditures incurred in association with two disasters: the winter storm and flooding of December 2004, and the Katrina/Rita hurricanes. Auditor of State Bulletin 98-013 requires that FEMA funds initially be placed into a special FEMA fund but goes on to allow those funds to be transferred from the FEMA fund into funds that made the original payments for completed work. This ordinance accomplishes that task.
