If an applicant provides essential community services at a facility that is unsafe, inaccessible, or destroyed as a result of the incident, temporarily relocation of these services to another facility is eligible. If the applicant was leasing the damaged facility and had to temporarily relocate to another leased facility, the increase in rent is eligible. Here, the Applicant temporarily relocated essential services from its Facility’s damaged basement to a Temporary Space but continued to pay rent for the undamaged portion of its Facility after the disaster, in addition to the rent it paid for the Temporary Space. Therefore, the Applicant is eligible for an additional $59,062.50.
FEMA finds that the Applicant is eligible for an additional $59,062.50 in PA funding for increased rent associated with temporary relocation. The appeal is granted.
