Lindley, Director of Community Services/7,10 DATE: August 20, 2001 (CC Meeting of September 5, 2001) SUBJECT: Consider Adoption of Resolutions Approving Future Applications for Safe Neighborhood Parks, Clean Water, Clean Air, and Coastal Protection Bond Act of 2000 Funds. BACKGROUND The Safe Neighborhood Parks, Clean Water, Clean Air, and Coastal Protection Bond Act of 2000 (Proposition 12) received approval by California voters on March 7, 2000. Proposition 12 has a number of provisions that provide funding to local governments to develop, improve, and maintain parks. Of significance to Moorpark is the Roberti- Z'Berg- Harris Urban Open Space and Recreation Grant and two Block Grants. Funds from these three grants will be distributed on a per capita basis. It is expected that they will generate approximately $353,000 for the City of Moorpark to be used on park projects: 1. Roberti- Z'Berg- Harris Grant: $ 84,000 2. Block Grant I - Statewide: $191,000 3. Block Grant II - Small Cities: $78,000 Important facts about the grants funds include: • Grantees must have a fully executed contracts for their Per Capita projects by June 30, 2003 and for Block Grant projects by June 30, 2004. • Per Capita grants are for capital outlay only. With regards to the Block Grant, no more that 30% can be used M: \MLindley \PARKS \Prop 12 Resolutions ccagd.doc . 3 Proposition 12 Resolutions Page 2 for major maintenance or innovative recreation programs. The remainder must go toward capital outlay. • Grantees may spend up to 25% for funds for non - construction costs, including grants administration, plans, and permits. • The Per Capita Grants do not require a match, the Block Grant requires a 30% match. In addition to the per capita grants, Proposition 12 provides for some competitive grant opportunities. However, most of these grants will be awarded to low- income communities. City staff will make every effort to seek these grants out and to submit potential projects when applicable. Prior to applying for the per capita grant funds identified above, the City must adopt the attached resolutions addressing both the Roberti - Z'Berg - Harris Grant and Block Grants I and II. The Resolutions state that the City approves future filings for grant funds, certifies that the City will have sufficient funds to operate and maintain improvements it constructs using grant funds, indicates that the City understands the grant procedures, and .appoints the City Manager as the designated position to conduct all negotiations and execute and sign all documents. The City's Parks and Recreation Commission will spend the next several months discussing proposed uses for the $353,000 from a list of existing park improvement projects, as well as any new projects that may be identified as a result of public input. It is expected that a recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council for consideration by March 2002. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Adopt the attached resolutions approving future Proposition 12 (Safe Neighborhood Parks, Clean Water, Clean Air, and Coastal Protection Bond Act of 2000) grant applications (Roberti -Z' Berg - Harris Funds and Block Grant I and II Funds). 0k"._11.
