FINAL PUBLIC NOTICE

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has received the subgrant application for Monroe County School Board’s repairs to the Sugarloaf Elementary campus due to damages in Hurricane Irma (DR-4337-FL PW 7135). Pursuant to Executive Order 11988 and 44 CFR Part 9.12, final notice is hereby given of FEMA’s intent to provide funding for this project under the Public Assistance (PA) Program.

An initial disaster-wide Public Notice was published October 06, 2017 for Hurricane Irma. Comments and other information received were fully evaluated by FEMA along with evaluation of social, economic, environmental, and safety considerations. This notice serves as a project-specific final notice for FEMA’s funding action located within the floodplain.

Funding for the proposed project will be conditional upon compliance with all applicable federal, tribal, state and local laws, regulations, floodplain standards, permit requirements and conditions. This action complies with the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) requirements.

Responsible Entity: FEMA Public Assistance (PA) Program

Applicant: Monroe County School Board

Project Title(s): PA-04-FL-4337-PW-07135; 14775 - Sugarloaf School Campus Complete Work

Location of Proposed Work: 255 Crane Blvd Summerland Key, FL 33042 ~ (24.66095, -81.53030)

Floodplain: Projects are in the AE Zone per Martin County FIRM Panels #12087C1292K dated 02.18.2005.

Proposed Work and Purpose: Monroe County School Board made repairs to sites within the facility due to damage from Hurricane Irma. The baseball field replaced a scoreboard with attachments, 163LF of chain link fencing & components, and 90LF of backstop. The football field replaced a scoreboard with attachments, 12 light fixtures, 4 light poles, and secured 2 additional light poles. Bldg. 3 (gymnasium) replaced 27,300SF of metal roofing, 5/8” drywall, and 9 exhaust fans.

Project Alternatives: The alternative that has been considered is the no action alternative. This alternative is not feasible as the area will remain vulnerable to flood risk, including property damage and hazards to human life and safety. Alternate locations were not considered as the damaged sites are part of a much larger facility.
