Explanation of above estimates (including long-range effect):
Properties selected for demolition are determined at a local government level, which could include properties from the 2016 flood if those properties meet the definition of an abandoned and dilapidated property. The original language of the code does not exclude structures damaged in the 2016 flood or any other flood, therefore, the addition of these structures to the program would have no effect on the expenditures or revenues of the DEP.
Memorandum
HB2618 doesn't speak of how any of those structures should be prioritized for demolition, both against other flooded structures and/or against all of the other structures identified by communities and counties via the formal process for which the fund was created.
