The failure to file a petition within the appropriate time period shall constitute a waiver of that person’s right to request an administrative determination (hearing) under Sections 120.569 and 120.57, F.S., or to intervene in this proceeding and participate as a party to it. Any subsequent intervention (in a proceeding initiated by another party) will be only at the discretion of the presiding officer upon the filing of a motion in compliance with Rule 28-106.205, F.A.C.

PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE
The City of Perry plans to apply to the Florida Department of Commerce for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) to be funded by the 2023 and 2024 storms, which include Hurricane Idalia (DR-4734-FL), Hurricane Debby (DR-4806-FL), and Hurricane Helene (DR-4828-FL). The Florida Department of Commerce (Florida Commerce) is the lead agency and responsible entity for administering the CDBG-DR funds allocated to the state by HUD to address unmet disaster recovery needs related to damage from the 2023 and 2024 Storms. Florida Commerce has allocated $400,000,000 in funding to the Rebuild Florida Infrastructure Repair Program (IRP). The funds will be used to address infrastructure repairs and improvements that are needed as a result of these storms.
To address its long-term recovery needs, the City of Perry has identified a comprehensive list of critical infrastructure projects. From this list, the city has up to 15 projects that it will consider for this funding request. The city will submit an application for each of the projects. The projects and amounts to be applied for are in five (5) categories. The proposed projects that will potentially be submitted for application are summarized in five major groups: 1.) Wastewater Treatment Facility Upgrades will harden and modernize the main treatment plant to better handle storm-related flows and ensure regulatory compliance. These projects will take place at the City of Perry Wastewater Treatment Facility, located at 507 Goff Street, Perry, FL. and have an estimated cost of $21,500,000. 2.) Effluent Disposal and Reuse System Hardening will add capacity and reliability to the system that disposes of treated wastewater, focusing on the city sprayfield and effluent pump station, for an estimated cost of $16,300,000. The spray field is located in the vicinity of Hampton Springs Road and the Fenholloway River. The effluent pump stations are located in various locations throughout the City of Perry. 3.) Drinking Water Source and Treatment Improvements will fund the construction of a new, hurricane-resistant water treatment plant and a new well to ensure a safe and redundant drinking water supply, for an estimated cost of $30,000,000. The existing water plant to be demolished is located at 713 Faulkner Street, Perry FL, while the new well and new water treatment plant will be located in the vicinity of the South Quadrant of the City of Perry. 4.) A city-wide Sanitary Sewer Collection and Drinking Water Distribution System Rehabilitation program will replace the oldest and most vulnerable sewer and water pipes to prevent failures during storms. These projects are located city-wide, with a focus on older/deteriorated pipes located mostly in and near the downtown area of Perry. The estimated cost is $157,550,000. 5.) The Wastewater Conveyance (Lift Station) Hardening project will rehabilitate 11 critical lift stations throughout the city to prevent sewer overflows for an estimated cost of $10,800,000.
The benefit to low- and moderate-income persons (LMI) is over 51%. For a more detailed list of all potential projects and their locations, please visit the City of Perry website at
https://www.cityofperry.net/ or contact John Hart, City Manager.
The City of Perry does not expect that anyone will be displaced as a result of CDBG-funded activities. If any persons are displaced as a result of the planned activities, the City of Perry will assist them as described in the City’s anti-displacement and relocation policy, which is available for review at City Hall.
