RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to apply for and accept a grant in an initial amount of $5,000 from the Contra Costa Keller Mitigation Trust Fund to assist in expedited removal of litter dumps and the removal of graffiti for the period of July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$5,000. 100% Keller Canyon Mitigation Fund. No County match.
BACKGROUND:
There are numerous litter dumps and abandoned shopping cars full of trash strewn amongst the streets of Bay Point. At times the expedited removal of these dumps is required and can't wait for the regular route pick up to remove. More trash, household appliances and furniture get added to the dump the longer it waits to be picked up. This program will allow the Office of the Sheriff to immediately address the issue.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The current problem of not being able to quickly address the issue will continue.
