RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Chief Engineer, Flood Control and Water Conservation District (District), or his designee, to execute an Agreement Regarding Access to and Use of Real Property in Order to Implement and Maintain a Habitat Restoration Project (Access Agreement), attached hereto, between the District and American Rivers, Inc. (American Rivers), pertaining to the Three Creeks Parkway Restoration Project, in the form attached hereto.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

The District has partnered with American Rivers to implement the Three Creeks Parkway Restoration Project (Project), a multi-benefit flood management and ecosystem restoration project located along portions of Marsh Creek in the Brentwood area from the Union Pacific Railroad crossing near Sungold Park to Dainty Avenue. The Board approved the Project on March 27, 2018.  

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
  
American Rivers has obtained and is in the process of obtaining grant funding to pay for a portion of the Project, including a grant from the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Conservancy (Conservancy). Attachment B of the Access Agreement is a copy of the Grant Agreement between American Rivers and the Conservancy. The Grant Agreement requires American Rivers to enter into a land tenure agreement with the District to ensure that American Rivers has permission to implement, monitor and maintain the Project on District property. Access under the Access Agreement will be subject to terms and conditions of an encroachment permit to be issued by the District prior to the start of construction.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If the Access Agreement is not approved, American Rivers may not receive grant funding from the Conservancy under the Grant Agreement. Other sources of funding may be needed to complete the Project.
