Grant Categories
The Flood Control District is offering funds in four grant categories:
- Original Flood Reduction
- Urban Streams
- Coastal Erosion/Coastal Flooding
- Culvert Replacement/Fish Passage
The three new programs address the countywide flood issues associated with urban streams, coastal erosion/coastal flooding, and culvert replacement/fish passage restoration. The original grant program remains and a total of four grant areas of interest are available under the Flood Reduction Grant Programs umbrella.
The original Flood Reduction grants will continue to target medium and small local flood reduction projects including projects where the control of stormwater will have a direct benefit in reducing flooding.
