Miami-Dade County has received $16,119,191 of Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery funds from the State of Florida’s Department of Community Affairs for storm related repairs to housing damaged by Hurricane Katrina. Homeowners may be eligible for the services provided through those funds if their household incomes are less than or equal to 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI) for Miami Dade County, if their homes have unaddressed damages from those storms, and if the damages cannot be addressed through FEMA funding. Homeowners must also demonstrate that the amount of damage repair assistance from other sources, such as insurance, has been insufficient to address the required repairs.
