Background/Analysis
The State of California Housing and Community Development is committed to helping
communities recover after disasters by administering special federal funds for mitigation
purposes.
MTT-PPS Program funds are available to assist eligible local jurisdictions with mitigation-related
planning and public services needs to support risk reduction from wildfire, flooding, and
earthquake hazards. MIT-PPS funds may be used to create projects that address risks to
community lifelines that support human health and safety and provide mitigation for individual
and community-based systems. Staff proposes to apply for up to $2.65 million, and if awarded,
complete two mitigation planning activities designed to ]essen the future risk of wildfire and
flooding and partner with multiple City departments to develop a community outreach program
to educate the public on the City's Community Wildfire Protection Plan.
Envi�^onmental Review
Applying for grant funding is not considered a project under the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA). Any project that is developed will be reviewed for CEQA compliance once
the details are known.
Under the National Environmental Policy Act, administrative and management activities such as
applying for grant funding are considered exempt activities and no further action is required.
Council P�io�ity/City Manager�Goals
