Subject: Program to Prepare Communities for Complex Coordinated Terrorist Attacks (CCTA) grant
Good afternoon Mr. Manager,
As previously discussed, the City of Miami was approved for $723,260 to implement a CCTA program in the
City of Miami in conjunction with partner jurisdictions. The FEMA process requires that the person who
submitted the grant application must be the one accepting the award in the on-line system. Since I was the
one submitting the application on behalf of the City, 1 will have to accept the award (and documents have my
name). Once I accept, I can then include the City Manager as Signatory Official to have his name included in
documents. Furthermore, the on-line acceptance must also occurr within 30 days of notification (Sept
12/17). Trainings scheduled for next week will require the update of budget and work program documents
that will be available only to entities that have accepted the award. It is imperative that the City is able to
participate on these webinars in order to meet the implementation timeline.
This item will be presented to the Commission in October by Fire Department.
I'm respectfully requesting authorization to move forward with approval of award to ensure the City does not
lose the funding and can update budget/work program according to the FEMAs schedule. It is understood
that the Miami Commission will have to accept funding to then have an agreement routed for signatures
following the City's established signature/approval process.
Regards,
Lillian P. Blonde
