St. Lucie Portable Water Distribution System

The St. Lucie Portable Water Distribution System project is part of the Infrastructure Repair Program, established through a subrecipient agreement between the Florida Department of Commerce and the Town of St. Lucie Village. This initiative utilizes federally funded CDBG-DR Rebuild Florida disaster recovery grants to improve local infrastructure, with a strict requirement that at least 70 percent of the funds benefit low-to-moderate income individuals. The agreement mandates full compliance with 24 CFR part 570 and 2 CFR Part 200, including rigorous record-keeping and audit standards, with a performance period extending through April 30, 2030. Additionally, the program integrates with the Rebuild Florida Hazard Mitigation Grant Match Program, which provides funding to reimburse the non-federal cost share of up to 25 percent for FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant Program projects. This comprehensive funding structure is designed to support recovery efforts and enhance infrastructure resilience against future disasters while ensuring that federal grant requirements and low-to-moderate income compliance are maintained throughout the project lifecycle.
