What’s in it

This bill relates to a proclamation of disaster emergency and the disaster aid contingent fund. The bill provides that when any emergency financial assistance is provided by the federal government, and upon the governor’s determination that financial assistance is essential to meet disaster-related necessary expenses or serious needs of local and state government adversely affected by a major disaster or emergency that cannot be otherwise adequately met from other means of assistance, the governor may accept a grant by the federal government and may enter into an agreement with the federal government pledging the state to participate in the funding of the financial assistance in an amount not to exceed percent of the total eligible expenses, with the applicant providing the balance of any participation amount.

Read the full explanation

If financial assistance is granted by the federal government for state disaster or emergency financial assistance-related expenses or serious needs, the state shall participate in the funding of the financial assistance authorized in an amount not to exceed percent of the total eligible expenses. The bill provides that when any emergency financial assistance is provided by the federal government, the executive council may make financial grants to meet disaster or emergency funding-related necessary expenses, serious needs, or hazard mitigation projects of local governments and eligible private nonprofit agencies adversely affected by the major disaster or emergency if those expenses or needs cannot otherwise be met from other means of assistance.
