RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE Appropriation and Revenue Adjustment No. 5024 authorizing new revenue from the State of California in the amount of $375,000 and appropriating it to the Board's Unfunded Mandates Program for the illegal dumping pilot project to enforce dumping laws, in accordance with the allocations approved by the Board on June 11, 2019 (Item D.10).

FISCAL IMPACT:

$375,000 State subsidy to be allocated: $365,000 to the General Fund and $10,000 to the Land Development Fund.

BACKGROUND:

On June 11, 2019, the Board approved recommendations of the County's Illegal Dumping Task Force to allocate $378,000 to the Conservation and Development, Public Works, Sheriff, and Health Services Departments for pilot illegal dumping enforcement activities. The Board directed staff to return to the Board with a proposal to authorize the expenditure of $378,000 to fund implementation of the recommended new or expanded strategies that cannot be covered within existing approved budgets.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The State of California Budget Act provides $375,000 to Contra Costa County for the illegal dumping pilot project to enforce dumping laws. The attached budget adjustment would recognize this one-time subsidy

and make it available to fund all but $3,000 of the $378,000 expenditures previously approved by the Board for this purpose. The remaining $3,000 will be provided with existing General Fund appropriations.
