The City of St. Augustine and St. Johns County, in coordination with their consultant, Quality Engineering and Surveying (QES), LLC, will offer three homeowner outreach meetings for residents interested in participating in the 2025 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) funding application submittal.
All St. Johns County residents, including City of St. Augustine residents, are welcome to attend any of the three homeowner outreach meetings. There will be a brief presentation with time for questions and one-on-one discussions with the consultant. Three meetings are being offered:
- Wednesday, August 13 at 3:00pm at the Southeast Branch Library (6670 US 1 South St. Augustine, FL 32086)
- Thursday, August 14 at 12:00pm in the Alcazar Room of City Hall (75 King Street)
- Thursday, August 14 at 5:30pm in the Alcazar Room of City Hall (75 King Street)
Residents interested in the 2025 FMA submittal program are encouraged to attend these important informational meetings. QES will not collect or review any documentation until after these initial meetings. In the meantime, residents should confirm they have an active National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) Flood Policy and a current elevation certificate for their property.
It is important to note these meetings will cover only the current 2025 Application Cycle; however, applicants currently participating in a previous FMA grant submittal who have questions should contact Andy Daray at adaray@QESLA.com.
