DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
The Mutual Assistance Agreement for Emergency Shelters between the County and the School Board was approved on July 16, 2019. Shortly after, the Florida Department of Emergency Management (FDEM) changed the policy that relates to seeking reimbursement after disasters. The First Amendment was approved on June 16, 2020 to give the School Board the responsibility to make direct reimbursement requests to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for disaster- related expenses. This Amendment did not extend or change the initial three (3) year term. The Second Amendment was approved on May 3, 2022, which amended Section 23 of the Shelter Agreement to provide for an additional three (3) year term, to July 16, 2025. The County and the School Board now desire to extend the agreement for an additional three (3) years from July 16, 2025 to July 16, 2028.
