RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Resolution No. 2019/486 to allow Department of Conservation and Development to apply for and accept grant funding from the California Coastal Conservancy in the amount of $133,387 for a Carquinez Strait Scenic Loop Trail gap closure study.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Coastal Conservancy has proposed awarding $133,387 to the Department of Conservation and Development. Staff time administering the grant is covered under existing budgeted activities.
BACKGROUND:
Normal processes would have staff bringing this matter before TWIC and then to the Board of Supervisors with a recommendation. Coastal Conservancy grant deadlines did not support this approach. Rather than missing this funding opportunity, staff is bringing the matter directly to the full Board of Supervisors for consideration.
