The 2002, California voters passed Proposition 40, which established a number of grant programs, that among other things, could be used for capital park projects. Allocations under the Roberti- Z'Berg Grant are based on population. The City of Moorpark is entitled to $89,495. In an April 18, 2007, City Council Agenda Report, staff indicated that its intent was to use the Roberti- Z'Berg Grant to help fund the expansion of Poindexter Park. The total cost of the project based on the approved conceptual design is approximately $2,368,251. The $89,495 will offset the amount that will need to come from City sources. In order to receive the funds, the City Council must approve the attached Resolution authorizing the grant submittal and designating the City Manager as the City's agent to conduct negotiations, execute, and submit all documents.
