2018 Mitigation Action Plan (continued) Notes:

Estimated Costs:

Where actual project costs have been reasonably estimated: Low = < $10,000; Medium = $10,000 to $100,000; High = > $100,000 Where actual project costs cannot reasonably be established at this time:

Low = Possible to fund under existing budget. Project is part of, or can be part of an existing on-going program. Medium = Could budget for under existing work-plan, but would require a reapportionment of the budget or a budget amendment, or the cost of the project

would have to be spread over multiple years. High = Would require an increase in revenue via an alternative source (i.e., bonds, grants, fee increases) to implement. Existing funding levels are not adequate

to cover the costs of the proposed project. Potential Funding (FEMA HMA):

PDM = Pre-Disaster Mitigation Grant Program FMA = Flood Mitigation Assistance Grant Program HMGP = Hazard Mitigation Grant Program

Implementation Schedule:

Short-Term= 1 to 5 years Long-Term= 5 years or greater DOF = Depending on funding.
