Brooksville approved a disaster debris monitoring contract with Debris Tech LLC on June 1 to help the city document debris removal and secure FEMA reimbursement during declared emergencies.
Procurement Administrator Emily Bennett said Debris Tech was the responsive and responsible bidder after an RFP process; the city attorney and city manager clarified that this contract covers monitoring and documentation only, not debris pickup. The city must have monitoring services in place by the start of hurricane season to meet statutory requirements (Senate Bill 180) and to support federal reimbursement claims.
Council voted 4–0 to authorize the contract.
Next steps: the city will execute the contract and use the monitoring services as needed during hurricane season to document removal operations for reimbursement purposes.
