RECOMMENDATION(S):

1. APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the fiscal year 2008/2009 Martinez Transfer Station Mitigation allocation plan in the amount of $4,000 for specific projects.

2. AUTHORIZE the County Administrator or his designee to complete appropriate documents for execution of agreements necessary to provide services as approved in the action plan by the Board of Supervisors.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% Martinez Transfer Station Mitigation Fees (Budgeted)

BACKGROUND:

Supervisor Uilkema and her staff have evaluated proposals for FY 2008/2009 funding for consistency with the service categories approved by the Finance Committee in FY 2003/2004 for the Keller Canyon Mitigation Funds. The categories are:

A. Youth Services
B. Code Enforcement
C. Community Beautification
D. Public Safety
E. Community Services

The Supervisor concluded that the following projects totaling $4,000.00 should be funded as follows:

Saranap Community Garden - $2,000
In Fiscal Year 2006/2007 this non-profit group worked in conjunction with the Contra Costa Public Works Department and East Bay MUD, to develop a landscaping plan for the beautification of the Olympic Boulevard Pedestrian Path. This funding will be used to purchase mulch in order to maintain the new landscaping.

Port Costa Conservation Society - $2,000
This non-profit group recently purchased an historic schoolhouse which they are restoring. Once the restoration is complete, the schoolhouse will be used as a community center in Port Costa. This funding will be used as a match for state and federal grants in order to complete the restoration.
