RE: FY2022 General Fund request for FEMA reimbursable COVID-19 expenses
Oakland County continues to lead the way in Michigan in responding to and mitigating the impact of the
Covid-19 pandemic on our resident and business communities. Securing funding for these activities
requires navigation of multiple programs at the federal and state levels of government. The Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is a major funding source for emergency response and
pandemic mitigation activities. Under the FEMA Public Assistance Grant, Emergency Protective
Measures (Category B) program eligible expenses are reimbursed to local governments at a 100%
rate. It is important that expenditures intended for reimbursement under the FEMA program be held in a
separate account to avoid complications with federal and state regulations. Below you will find an
estimated budget of expected FEMA reimbursable expenses for FY22. I am requesting your support for
an appropriation in this amount in the Emergency Management and Homeland Security budget to
provide the authorization needed to continue necessary pandemic response and mitigation activities to
protect the public health and safety. Expenditures within this fund will be reported on a monthly basis to
the Board and will be presented for reimbursement from FEMA at a later date in the form of a grant
application that will come before the Board.
