Staff Recommendation Background:
The City was awarded a $3,000,000 grant under the Florida Resilient Grant Program for Fire Station 37 in June 2022. The grant funds were formally accepted by Resolution 2022-137 on December 27, 2022 with an expiration date of June 30, 2025.
Since award acceptance, the project has experienced delays during the planning and design phase, including a change in consultant through extenuating circumstances and subsequent revisions to the project design. As a result, the project schedule has been extended beyond the original timeframe.
The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) previously approved a grant extension through June 30, 2026. Additional time is now required to complete the design phase. FDEP has approved a further extension through June 30, 2027. At that time, a subsequent extension may be necessary to accommodate the construction phase of the project. Funding Source:
