15. If I receive debris removal designated insurance funds from my insurance company after the County sends out invoices, what should I do?

If the check is made payable to you and the County of Sonoma, you should endorse the check and submit it to the County at the below address, and the County will pass on funds to CalOES/FEMA. If you incurred eligible offsetting expenses to resolve debris removal issues, submit all supporting documentation and receipts with your check. The County will deposit the check and can issue a reimbursement check to you for those documented offsetting expenses.

If the check is made out to you, you may either:

(1) Deposit the check into your bank account and write the County a check, or

(2) Endorse the check over to the County. If you incurred eligible offsetting expenses to resolve debris removal issues, submit all documentation and receipts with the check. If you have endorsed the check over to the County, the County will deposit the check and can issue a reimbursement check to you for those documented offsetting expenses.

NOTE: If the check is made out to two parties as “Jane and John Doe,” both parties must endorse the check over to the County. If the check is made out to two parties as “Jane or John Doe,” either party can endorse the check over to the County.

Checks should be delivered or mailed to:

County of Sonoma
