NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY OF ACT 35 FUNDING AWARD TO AN ELIGIBLE NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION SERVING KAUAI COUNTY The County of Kauai (the “County”) is issuing a Request for Proposal to select a non-profit organization to manage the implementation and financial distribution of $7,285,000 for North Shore Watershed Flood Mitigation Sub-grants (the “Program”). The selected non-profit organization will serve as a custodian for the funds, liaison with various stakeholders, foster consensus in the community, develop a process to award flood migration sub-grants, monitor the sub-grantees, and report to the County (at a minimum quarterly). The Program is intended to ultimately produce multiple sub-grants to other non-profit organizations so that those organizations can conduct mitigation projects which reduce harm from future flooding events through structural and nonstructural actions, interventions, and investments. The selected non-profit organization may not itself conduct a flood mitigation project with these funds. Specific details regarding proposals and required documentation will be provided in the Request for Proposal. All proposals will be reviewed subject to the County of Kauai’s review process. Proposals are due by November 15, 2021. Proposals received after the deadline will not be considered. Notification of approval for funding shall be made no later than December 3, 2021. You may submit proposals or questions about the Request for Proposals to Ronn Miyashiro at rmiyashiro@kauai.gov To view the Request for Proposals for Implementation and Distribution of Sub-Grants for North Shore Watershed Flood Mitigation guidelines, please go to: http://www.kauaiforward.com (SA/TGI1345361 10/17/21)
