AI Contract Overview

The Local Match Participation Program, administered by the Kentucky Department for Local Government, provides state bond funds as grants to assist cities and counties in meeting cost-share match requirements for flood control projects funded by federal agencies. Eligible federal sponsors include the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, FEMA, the U.S. Geological Survey, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, and USDA Rural Development. Funding is available for a wide range of structural and non-structural initiatives, such as the construction of floodwalls, levees, and small dams, the acquisition and relocation of facilities from flood-prone areas, debris removal, the elevation of structures, and technical work including flood inundation mapping and stream flow gauges. The state's contribution is designed to cover a percentage of the local match requirement and will not exceed the total amount of federal funds committed to the project. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis and must be submitted to Aaron Jones at the Office of State Grants. To be considered, applicants must provide a resolution from their local government legislative body authorizing the application and copies of legally binding agreements or commitment letters from the federal sponsor. The requested grant amount must be reasonable relative to the project scope and the committed federal funds. While the program focuses on federal partnerships, the Department for Local Government encourages grantees to secure additional support from various state, local, non-profit, and private sector entities to enhance project viability.
