Russo, City Manager FROM: Evelyn Trammell, Assistant to the City Manager DATE: 9/17/2020 RE: Adoption of the Miami -Dade County 2020 Local Mitigation Strategy Plan RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Commission adopts the 2020 Miami - Dade County Local Mitigation Strategy Plan (LMS). REASONS: The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the State of Florida requires an update of Miami -Dade County's Local Mitigation Strategy Plan every 5 years to comply with the federal hazard mitigation planning standards contained in 44 CFR 201.6(b) -(d). In order to comply with this regulation, Miami -Dade County updated their LMS and submitted it to the State for review. On August 26, 2020, the State of Florida Department of Emergency Management confirmed that 2020 Miami -Dade County LMS Plan is compliant with federal standards and approved contingent on the formal adoption by participating municipalities, by September 15,2020*. Once the State of Florida Department of Emergency Management confirms adoption of the 2020 Miami -Dade County LMS Plan by participating municipalities, they will send all documentation to FEMA who will issue formal approval of the 2020 Miami -Dade County LMS Plan. Adoption of the 2020 Miami -Dade County LMS Plan helps to fulfill requirements for the application of federal grants such as: • Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) - FEMA • Business Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) - FEMA • Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) - FEMA • Community Development Block Grant - Mitigation (CDBG-MIT) - HUD These grants aid in the implementation of mitigation measures reducing or eliminating risks faced from disasters and natural hazards. *Because formal adoption of the 2020 Miami -Dade County LMS Plan is required by September 15, 2020, the effective date of the Resolution is retroactively dated to September 14, 2020.

These representatives formed the nucleus of the Working Group and were established to fulfill the obligations of a grant from the State of Florida. On June 15, 2000, the EOC moved to its present location at 9300 N.W 41 st Street, Miami, FL 33178. The Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) — Part 5 is a compilation of the meeting minutes from the LMS Working Group (LMSWG) which provides the reader with an overview of the be- ginning, the development, and continuing activities of the LMSWG. Originally, it was re- quired by the State that a meeting schedule was to be maintained; however, a year later the meeting schedule was no longer published. The meeting held on August 12, 1999 was the last meeting under the original State contract. In September 1999 the meeting frequency was changed from monthly to quarterly. Meet- ings dates have now been stabilized and are generally held on the central Wednesday of March, June, September and December. In recent times, members of the LMS Working Group have volunteered to host the LMS Working Group meetings, which seems to enhance interest and attendance. The meeting minutes will be continuously published as they clearly demonstrate the growth and development of the Local Mitigation Strategy in Miami -Dade County. The five-year planning cycle dating back to 2015 is included in the LMS - Part 5. A complete archive of meeting minutes from 1998 through the 2014 calendar year is available upon request from the LMS Chair at mdlms -miamidade.gov.
