The Federal Emergency Management Agency awarded a $750,867 Project Grant to the State of Florida Division of Emergency Management under the Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) program (CFDA 97.029). The grant will fund flood mitigation activities from July 2022 through July 2025.

As a FMA project, the State of Florida will provide $750,867 to Hillsborough County to acquire and demolish a Severe Repetitive Loss property located at 4910 Mud Lake Road in Plant City, Florida. The property will be converted to open space in perpetuity to eliminate the risk of future flood damage. Hillsborough County will remove debris, abandon the well and septic tank, disconnect utilities, and ensure the converted land complies with applicable federal, state and local regulations. The project aims to mitigate flooding and prevent health and safety risks for homeowners from a 100-year storm event.
