Grants Directly from the Department to Homeowners

PURPOSE:

Section 215.5586, F.S., created the My Safe Florida Home (MSFH) Program. This program provides grants to certain homeowners for hurricane damage mitigation work to their homes. This rule establishes procedures for application and award of grants to non-low income grant applicants in the MSFH program; sets forth Department interpretation of certain grant eligibility criteria that are specified only in general by Section 215.5586, F.S.; and sets forth the Department’s interpretation as to the intended effect of changes made by the Legislature to Section 215.5586, F.S., in its 2007 regular session, concerning homeowners previously issued grants or previously advised by the Department that they were eligible for a grant. Both low income and non-low income persons may receive grants, but low-income applicants are subject to different requirements. This rule applies only to non low-income applicants. Subsection (6) of 215.5586, F.S., provides rulemaking authority to adopt rules to implement Section 215.5586, F.S., and carry out the duties of the Department pursuant to the Section 215.5586, F.S.
