Agenda 11/14/2017 Item #16F 811/14/2017
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to authorize additional FY 2018 budget amendments covering post Hurricane
Irma clean up and recovery for Debris Removal
OBJECTIVE: Establish sufficient FY 2018 budget providing for uninterrupted clean up and recovery
post Hurricane Irma.
CONSIDERATIONS: Funding cleanup and restoration of the community in the aftermath of Hurricane
Irma continues and to that end, this executive summary requests approval for one (1) additional FY 2018
budget amendment providing for an additional $40 million in debris removal appropriations. Previous
debris removal budget amendments have totaled $37,750,000 and this additional BA will cover expected
debris removal costs through November and into December. It is expected that an additional $30 plus
million in budget may be necessary to fully fund the debris removal mission. This BA will likely be
submitted to the Board for approval on December 12th.
Attached to this report is a complete summary of all FY 2017 and current to date FY 2018 Hurricane Irma
budget amendments including the budget amendment covered in this executive summary. Cumulatively,
all FY 2017 and FY 2018 budget amendments to date total $114,134,200. The amount spent to date,
including payroll, during FY 2017 and FY 2018 totals $25,968,000. It is expected that the first
reimbursement package will be submitted to FEMA in late November totaling approximately
$56,650,000. The amount of time between reimbursement submittal and deposit to the County will be
closely monitored. Establishing sufficient budget for clean up and restoration from this event is not
indicative of actual expenditures, simply a barometer of anticipated expenses.
FISCAL IMPACT: This Hurricane event will require a significant amount of County resources up front
in anticipation of reimbursement in the coming months. The most significant component will be removing
approximately 4.5 million cubic yards of debris from the community. The County has sufficient resources
to cash flow the required clean up and restoration work and we are well positioned to submit for
reimbursement for work performed to the appropriate agencies in a timely fashion. However, OMB will
be monitoring the reimbursement stream closely and if necessary take appropriate mid -year budget
management steps to always insure that sufficient year ending FY 2018 cash is maintained.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been reviewed by the County Attorney, is approved as to
form and legality, and requires majority vote for approval. - JAK
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize this FY 2018 budget amendment covering post Hurricane Irma clean
up and recovery for debris removal.
