A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDLANDS
APPROVING THE APPLICATION FOR GRANT FUNDS UNDER THE HAZARD
MITIGATION GRANT PROGRAM (HMGP) FUNDING RELATED TO THE EARLY
AND LATE WINTER STORMS, 1995 (FEMA 1044-FEMA 1046).
WHEREAS, within the context of the HMGP, the definition of hazard mitigation is an action
intended to reduce repetitive losses from future natural disasters, including loss to life, injury and
property damage where loss results in public expenditure for disaster preparedness, response and
recovery operations; and
WHEREAS, within the context of the HMGP, FEMA has determined that hazard mitigation
is not simply a measure that prepares individuals or communities to respond to a threat, but
specifically means those projects that reduce the risk of repetitive loss and hardship so that the cost
of response and recovery will be less in the future; and
WHEREAS, applicants must have an available match source of funding for 25 percent of the
project costs at the time of application; and
WHEREAS, eligible applicants are state agencies, local jurisdictions, or private non-profit
entities providing educational, emergency, utility, medical, custodial care and essential governmental
services through facilities; and
WHEREAS, the project must be located within the declared disaster area; and
WHEREAS, the project proposal does not qualify for funds under the public assistance
program; and
WHEREAS, said procedures and criteria established by the State Office of Emergency
Services require the applicant to certify by resolution the approval of an application before
submission of said application to the State,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Redlands
approves the filing of an application for grant funds under the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program
funding related to the California Severe Winter Storms, FEMA 1044-FEMA 1046-DR-CA, and
certifies that said applicant will make adequate provisions for development and construction of the
project known as the Flood Protection Project for the California Street Landfill and the Wastewater
Treatment Plant.
