Board Of Supervisors — Tuesday, May 10, 2022

Memorandum Date: May 10, 2022 To: The Honorable Lake County Board of Supervisors From: Susan Parker, Interim County Administrative Officer Subject: (a) Rescind approval of Agreement for Provision of Satellite Imagery Services By Planet Labs PBC to the County of Lake; (b) waive the formal bidding process, pursuant to Lake County Code Section 38.1, as an extension of an annual agreement; and (c) Approve Agreement for Provision of Satellite Imagery Services By Planet Labs PBC to the County of Lake. Executive Summary: In order to better regulate the proliferation of illegal cannabis cultivation multiple counties have employed the use of satellite imagery. This imagery has helped identify these operations and streamline the ability of code enforcement to respond. The counties using this service have contracted with Planet Labs, which has offered previously unavailable services allowing for targeted imaging of certain areas at a designated time, up to the entire boundaries of the County if needed. Lake County is among those jurisdictions being provided funding for this satellite imagery service through a Proposition 64 - Public Health and Safety Grant. The focus of this grant is to support code enforcement operations against unlawful cannabis cultivation. On February 22, 2021, your Board approved a 12-month agreement not to exceed $49,950. A 12-month renewal of this agreement with the same terms is attached. Staff is requesting your Board waive the formal bidding process pursuant to Lake County Code Section 38.1, as it is an extension of an annual agreement. Planet is the designated service provider pursuant to the State's grant, and Code Enforcement staff has worked towards integrating this product's hosted platform into their illegal cannabis cultivation enforcement efforts as proposed in the Proposition 64 grant. Given that the Code Enforcement division is still in the process of rehiring and training staff, it is not recommended that any agreement more expansive in scope be considered at this time. If Code Enforcement staff and other county departments are able to expand the utilization of these services over the course of this upcoming year, staff could then effectively explore procuring more expansive satellite imagery services, including imagery products available through other vendors. On May 3, your Board approved a renewed agreement with Planet Labs Inc. After the meeting, the contractor notified County staff that their corporate structure has changed to a Public Benefit Corporation and requested that any reference to "Planet Labs Inc" be revised to "Planet Labs PBC". The revised agreement is attached for your consideration.

Memorandum Date: May 10, 2022 To: The Honorable Supervisor Crandall, Chair, Lake County Board of Supervisors From: Scott Harter, Special Districts Administrator Jesus Salmeron, Special Districts Deputy Administrator- Fiscal Subject: (Sitting as the Lake County Sanitation District Board of Directors) (a) Waive the competitive bidding process, pursuant to Lake County Code Section 2-38.2, based on the unique nature of the goods or services precludes competitive bidding; (b) Authorize Special Districts Administrator/Assistant Purchasing Agent to issue a purchase order not to exceed $126,000 to Bogie's Pump Systems for the purchase of a Fairbanks Morse 350 HP pump for Lift Station #1. Executive Summary: (include fiscal and staffing impact narrative): The existing 350 HP pump inside Lift Station #1, which pumps raw sewage from a portion of Clearlake to the Southeast Treatment Plant, is at the end of its useful life and has been pulled and sent in for repairs. Once the pump was pulled, dismantled, and assessed it was found that the cost to order replacement parts to repair the pump is greater and more time consuming than the cost of ordering a replacement pump of the same make/model. Our staff has made several attempt at obtaining quotes from additional vendors, however, Bogie's Pump Systems is the authorized regional distributor for our area. Repairing the existing pump does not make economic sense, and ordering the replacement from an east coast distributor with additional shipping costs is not practical either. Staff respectfully requests your Board approve the purchase order for the Fairbanks Morse 350 HP pump for Lift Station #1 from Bogie's Pump Systems. If not budgeted, fill in the blanks below only: Estimated Cost: $125,550.79 Amount Budgeted: $125,550.79 Additional Requested: 0 Future Annual Cost: 0 Consistency with Vision 2028 and/or Fiscal Crisis Management Plan (check all that apply): ☐ Not applicable ☒ Well-being of Residents ☒ Public Safety ☒ Infrastructure ☐ Technology Upgrades ☐ Economic Development ☐ Disaster Recovery ☐ County Workforce ☐ Revenue Generation ☐ Community Collaboration ☐ Business Process Efficiency ☐ Clear Lake ☐ Cost Savings If request for exemption from competitive bid in accordance with County Code Chapter 2 Sec. 2-38, fill in blanks below: Which exemption is being requested? N/A How long has Agreement been in place? N/A When was purchase last rebid? N/A Reason for request to waive bid?

Memorandum Date: May 10, 2022 To: The Honorable Lake County Board of Supervisors From: Scott De Leon, Water Resources Director Subject: Adopt Resolution authorizing the County of Lake Water Resources Director to apply for, accept, and execute Prop 68 state grant funds for improving waterways, administered by the California Natural Resources Agency: to conduct countywide community trash cleanup events and improve Illicit Discharge Detection Elimination(IDDE)/ Spill Response Planning Executive Summary: Staff is requesting the Board of Supervisors, acting as the Board of the Watershed Protection District, authorize the Water Resources Director to apply for, accept and execute Prop 68 state grant funds for improving waterway, and administered by the CA Natural Resources Agency. This item is not expected to be controversial; therefore we are requesting this item to be placed on the Consent Agenda. These projects were approved for funding by the Blue Ribbon Committee for the Rehabilitation of Clear Lake but the Board has to approve the project information before contracts and agreements can be finalized by the State. This project will improve water quality by preventing pollution and excess nutrients from entering waterways through: coordination of 6-12 annual community clean up events, improved county wide tracking/spill response of illicit discharges, outreach, and education. While these grants are bringing in $706,700.00 in CA State Prop 68 Grant Funds, as approved by the Blue Ribbon Committee, the Water Resource Department is also providing match to ensure execution and to meet grant shortfalls (i.e. fringe, overhead, etc.). The total in match being provided by the department for these grant funds is $300,000.00 and this amount is budgeted along with the grant funds to be reimbursed for a total of $1,006,700.00 through March 1st 2025.

The District proposed such a project (Abatement of Dilapidated Lakebed Structures) which satisfied the criteria of the BRC to meet their purpose. The BRC recommended the aforementioned project to the CNRA and they approved the project funding. Prior to entering a grant agreement, CNRA requires a resolution from the District governing body authorizing the application for grant funds.

Memorandum Date: May 10, 2022 To: The Honorable Lake County Board of Supervisors From: Jessica Pyska, Lake County Supervisor, District No. 5 Moke Simon, Lake County Supervisor, District No. 1 Subject: Consideration of Resolution Proclaiming the Existence of a Local Emergency Due to Pervasive Tree Mortality Executive Summary: The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection found that its aerial and group surveys in Napa and Lake County revealed widespread conifer mortality leaving trees vulnerable to insect attacks and fire damage. On March 28, 2022, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order No. 7-77, that states the ongoing drought will have significant immediate impacts on communities. In response, the Lake County Risk Reduction Authority created the Lake County Tree Mortality Task Force established to investigate and address the extensive tree mortality in the County caused primarily by wildfire, drought and insect damage. The Lake County Tree Mortality Task Force members have attended several presentations from individuals with considerable expertise in both entomology and tree mortality, including Forest Advisor Dr. Michael Jones, an entomologist from University of California Cooperative. The overriding message was that failure to actively address tree mortality could result in the potential loss or degradation of forest habitats and associated ecological impacts, including the impact of wildlife, water and soil. And as such, create dangerous wildfire conditions that also threaten the safety of persons and property and will likely extend beyond the capacity of public safety services, personnel, equipment, and facilities of this County. This Resolution requests the following actions from Governor Newsom; 1) Proclaim a State of Emergency in Lake County and other afflicted areas of the State, 2) Seek designation of tree mortality areas within Lake County and other afflicted areas of the State under Section 8204 of the Agriculture Act of 2014 and seek additional Federal program support; and 3) Request a Presidential Declaration of Emergency or Major Disaster for this emergency.

BACKGROUND The appellant is appealing the Planning Commission's November 18, 2021 3-1 approval (four Planning Commissioners present) of a Major Use Permit (19-36) to permit a commercial cannabis cultivation major use permit and mitigated negative declaration of the following uses located at 2050 and 2122 Ogulin Canyon Road, Clearlake, CA 95423, APN's 010-053-01 and 010-053-02. * Fifteen (15) A-Type 3 "outdoor" licenses totaling 816,750 sq. ft. cultivation (18.75 acres) and 653,400 sq. ft. of total canopy (15 acres) on five (5) sites: o Site A. Northwestern Hops Field (with a cultivation area of 5.09 acres) o Site B. Southwest Clearing (with a cultivation area of 6.56 acres) o Site C. Northeast Hops Field (with a cultivation area of 1.45 acres) o Site D. Central Hops Field (with a cultivation area of 3.72 acres) o Site E. Chaparral Clearing (with a cultivation area of 1.92 acres) * Sites A through D would include temporary 20' x 100' (2,000 square feet) hoop-houses that are of simple construction that will not require lighting. The hoop-houses are intended to provide protection for cannabis plants, and would be used on an as-needed basis and dismantled at the end of each growing season * Portable toilets, trash enclosures, vegetation waste storage areas, 2,500-gallon water storage tanks at five cultivation areas, Conex shipping containers and/or 8'x 8' storage sheds (or similar) for storage of pesticides, fertilizers, and hazardous materials * A 1.5 acres onsite nursery within an existing barn and shade structures * One (1) renovated 10' x 30' shipping container to house security equipment and camera monitors * 6' tall security wire fencing that will be secured by locked gates and that will enclose cultivation areas. The applicant was approved for Early Activation (EA) on February 28, 2020 by the County Zoning Administrator. The applicant's lessee subsequently constructed hoop houses on Site A and graded 56,640 square feet of Site B. There was also evidence that trees were removed during the grading of the site. The Code Enforcement Division of the County of Lake's CDD cited the lessee with Notice of Violation and Stop Work Order on May 14, 2020. The applicant was found to be in violation of several conditions outlined in the EA Approval (EA 20-22), including but not limited to: * Condition of Approval four (4) * Condition of Approval Seven (7) * Condition of Approval Nine (9) * Condition of Approval Seventeen (17) Exhibit 14 includes documentation on the violations and remediation. To address the violations, the applicant coordinated with the CDD staff to identify and implement corrective actions, including the removal of the hoop houses, preparation of engineered grading plans, stabilization of the illegal grading area, and installation of storm water management controls to prevent erosion. These plans and associated actions to mitigate the violations were received by the CDD, which were cleared by the CDD on August 8, 2021. No cultivation activities have occurred at the project site since the revocation of the Early Activation. On November 18, 2021 the Use Permit was approved by the Lake County Planning Commission. An appeal to the Board of Supervisors was filed by the appellant on November 24, 2021. The appellant filed the appeal on behalf of at least twelve (12) residents located in the Burns Valley Groundwater Basin area which is located southwest of the said property. The combined parcel area is approximately 302.4 acres and is located on Ogulin Canyon Road in Clearlake. The subject site is within the boundary of the Shorelines Communities Area Plan. The project parcel is within the City of Clearlake's Sphere of Influence/City Limits. Cannabis cultivation is prohibited within 1,000 feet of a City's Sphere of Influence unless the applicant can provide a letter of support from the City of Clearlake. A letter of support from the City of Clearlake was issued on February 24, 2020.

APPEAL DISCUSSION SEC. 21-58.30 BOARD OF SUPERVISORS APPEALS. Decisions of the Planning Commission may be appealed. Response: The appellant submitted written concerns regarding this application on November 24, 2021. (b) Timeliness, form, filing and fee: An appeal of a decision by the Planning Commission shall be filed with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors within seven (7) calendar days of the decision on the prescribed form and accompanied by the applicable fee in the amount to be set by the Board of Supervisors. (Ord. No. 1749, 7/7/1988) Response: This appeal was filed on November 24, 2021 within the appeal period on the correct application form and with the correct application fee. (c) Required documents: An appeal shall be accompanied by a written statement setting forth the grounds upon which the appellant asserts there was an error or abuse of discretion by the Planning Commission. (Ord. No. 1897, 12/7/1989) Response: The appellant submitted a written description of why the appellant believes the Planning Commission erred in its decision to approve this land use permit and CEQA review (IS/MND). The appellants cited several specific aspects of the PC's decision as being deficient. The appellant maintains that the development of existing grape vineyards and additional approved cannabis operations contribute to biological impacts associated with water demand, water use, and the capacity of the groundwater system to recharge, and that the proposed water use for the cultivation of cannabis in said property would have cumulative impacts on water demand, water use and capacity of the groundwater system to recharge. The appellant maintains that the capacity of the groundwater to store and recharge water during the current drought remains unaddressed in the environmental review. The appellant objects to the outdoor growing of cannabis because the site area is within the County's required 1000-foot setback from the City of Clearlake's Sphere of Influence/City Limits, and notes that the Early Activation (EA) permit that was approved by the County in February 2020 was later revoked due to violations of the EA. The argument made by the appellant it its entirety is found as EXHIBIT A1 - APPEAL. 58.32 Effect of filing the appeal: An appeal shall stay the proceedings and effective date of the decision of the Planning Commission until such time as the appeal has been acted on as hereinafter set forth. Response: The Planning Commission approved file no. UP 19-46 on November 18, 2021. The appeal was filed on the 6th day of the appeal period for this action (November 24, 2021). 58.33 Forwarding of record: Prior to the hearing on said appeal, the Planning Department shall transmit to the Board of Supervisors pertinent permit materials including all maps and data and a staff report setting forth the reasons for the decision by the Planning Commission. Response: All applicable documents, maps, Planning Commission staff report, hearing minutes and public testimony received by staff have been included with this Memorandum as EXHIBITS A1 through A16. 58.34 Public hearing and notice: Following the filing of an appeal, the Board of Supervisors shall hold a public hearing on the matter scheduled and noticed as required in Section 57.3. The public hearing shall be de novo and all interested persons may appear and present evidence. Response: A Public Hearing notice will be sent upon submission of this Memo and Exhibits to the Board of Supervisors for Review. Notice will be sent to all known property owners within 750 feet, and persons filing written and emailed comments prior to the Board of Supervisors hearing. III. Project Analysis 1. Article 51.4, Major Use Permits, Findings Required for Approval The Board of Supervisors may approve or deny this appeal. Upholding the appeal would cause the Use Permit and IS/MND to be denied. Denying the appeal would result in the approval or conditional approval of the Major Use Permit and Mitigated Negative Declaration. The Planning Commission's decision was based on its making the following required findings: 1. That the establishment, maintenance, or operation of the use applied for will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, or be detrimental to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the County. Response: Commercial Cannabis Cultivation Operation is a permitted use in the "RL" Rural Lands Zoning District as well as the "A" Agricultural district upon issuance of a Major Use Permit pursuant to Article 27 of the Lake County Zoning Ordinance. Prior to the applicant constructing any type of structure(s), the applicant shall obtain the necessary permits from the appropriate Federal, State and/or Local government agencies. The environmental analysis (EXHIBIT A9 - INITIAL STUDY) determined that the use would not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood as all potential impacts have been reduced to less than significant with the incorporated mitigation measures and Conditions of Approval. Potential impacts identified relate to air quality, biological resources, cultural/tribal/ geologic resources, noise and wildfire. Additionally, the Community Development Department would conduct Annual Compliance Monitoring Inspections during the cultivation season to ensure compliance with the approved Property Management Plan and Conditions of Approval, as discussed in detail in the planning commission report dated November 18, 2021. 2. That the site for the project is adequate in size, shape, location, and physical characteristics to accommodate the type of use and level of development proposed. Response: The project site is the former Hops-Meister Farm that included the cultivation of approximately 13.6 acres of hops beginning in 2009. The site has been developed to include farming and agricultural support facilities, including a 1,200 square foot residence, septic system, barn, accessory structures, multiple wells, and irrigation facilities. The said property includes 816,750 square feet of cannabis cultivation and 653,400 square feet canopy coverage. This canopy area represents 4.96% of the 302.40 total acre site. The pre-existing agricultural activities covered a site area of over 18 acres. Other land uses on said property include residential, timberland, and grazing land use activities. The project complies with the 20 acres of land to one acre of canopy stipulation. A deed restriction on each parcel is required for the approved permit Lake Vista Farms, LLC UP 19-36. 3. That the streets, highways and pedestrian facilities are reasonably adequate to safely accommodate the specific proposed use. Response: The project takes access via a gravel driveway from Ogulin Canyon Road through an existing security gate. 4. That there are adequate public or private services, including but not limited to fire protection, water supply, sewage disposal, and police protection to serve the project. Response: This application was routed to all of the affected public and private service providers including Public Works, Special Districts, Environmental Health, and PG&E, and to all area Tribes. Relevant comments may be found in EXHIBIT A3 - 11.18.21 STAFF REPORT, PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, AGENCY AND PUBLIC COMMENTARY. No comments were received that would affect a substantial adverse impact determination. The appellant submitted a written description of why the appellant believes the Planning Commission erred in its decision to approve this land use permit and CEQA review (IS/MND). The appellants cited several specific aspects of the PC's decision as being deficient. The appellant maintains that the development of existing grape vineyards on other parcels and existing approved cannabis operations contribute to biological impacts associated with water demand, water use, and the capacity of the groundwater system to recharge, and that the proposed water use for the cultivation of cannabis in said property would have cumulative impacts on water demand, water use and capacity of the groundwater system to recharge. The appellant maintains that the capacity of the groundwater to store and recharge water during the current drought remains unaddressed in the environmental review. 5. That the project is in conformance with the applicable provisions and policies of this Code, the General Plan and any approved zoning or land use plan. Response: This project is a permitted use in accordance to the Rural Lands (RL) zoning district within the County of Lake's Commercial Cannabis ordinance. The project, as conditioned, meets all requirements and development standards of the Zoning Ordinance. The General Plan and the Shoreline Community Area Plan do not have any provisions for commercial cannabis, but both plans do have provisions for economic development and related policies that the project is consistent with (Please refer to the Staff Report from 11.18.21, section VI Project Analysis). 6. That no violation of Chapters 5, 17, 21, 23 or 26 of the Lake County Code currently exists on the property, unless the purpose of the permit is to correct the violation, or the permit relates to a portion of the property which is sufficiently separate and apart from the portion of the property in violation so as not to be affected by the violation from a public health, safety or general welfare basis. Response: Violations of the County of Lake were remediated as of August 8, 2021. Please refer to EXHIBITS A14 and A13, respectively, VIOLATIONS and REMEDIATION for full details on violation remediation. The Community Development Department has no record of current violations of Chapters 5, 17, 21, 23 or 26 of the Lake County Code for this property. Article 27, sub.

Memorandum Date: May 10, 2022 To: The Honorable Lake County Board of Supervisors From: Lars Ewing, Public Services Director Subject: Consideration of an Ordinance Establishing Chapter 31 of the Lake County Code for an Edible Food Recovery Program Executive Summary: Last year staff presented to the Board of Supervisors a summary of the regulations which implement the State's Short-Lived Climate Pollutant Reduction Strategy (SB 1383). The regulations, which were adopted by CalRecycle, were designed to reduce statewide landfill disposal of organic waste and include requirements for organic waste recycling and surplus food recovery. Your board has already taken action to approve a rural jurisdiction waiver, which exempts the County from the requirements to provide organic waste collection services, perform organic waste capacity planning, and procure organic waste products. The waiver does not, however, exempt the County from the requirement to establish an edible food recovery program. The state's goal through this component of the regulations is to help meet the statewide target of decreasing by 20% the amount of edible food that is currently wasted (i.e. sent to the landfill), and instead divert that edible food to people in need. To support that goal, the state requires the County's edible food recovery program to consist of the following: 1. Identify commercial edible food generators that are mandated to comply with the regulations 2. Educate all mandated food generators of the requirement to establish donor agreements with food recovery organizations 3. Monitor food donor compliance 4. Assess the county's food recovery capacity, and plan for additional capacity if it is determined to be insufficient 5. Establish an enforcement mechanism for the mandated food generators Numbers 1 and 2 above have been completed, while 3 and 4 are in progress. For number 5, the County is required to adopt an edible food recovery ordinance, and by January 2024 begin enforcing the ordinance in response to violations, for commercial food generators who do not comply with the requirements of the program. What this equates to for Lake County businesses is approximately a dozen grocery stores that will be required to enter into a contract with a food recovery organization for the donation of edible food that otherwise would have been thrown away. Earlier this year staff assembled an informal group of industry representatives to provide input for the establishment of Lake County's edible food recovery program ordinance. The representatives came from the three distinct groups noted in the state regulations: local jurisdictions, food donors, and food recovery organizations.

Memorandum Date: May 10, 2022 To: The Honorable Lake County Board of Supervisors From: Marina Deligiannis, Deputy Water Resources Department Director and Angela De Palma-Dow, Program Coordinator Subject: Consideration of Presentation and Discussion by Watershed Protection District for the request to allocate $500,000 matching funds, over a period of six years, to support $1.9 Million in approved, and partially awarded, Blue Ribbon Committee Storm Water Project Grant Funds. Executive Summary: The Watershed Protection District is requesting consideration of a presentation to the Lake County Board of Supervisors and to the Board of Directors of the Lake County Watershed Protection District. The presentation will outline a proposed request for matching funds for $500,000 through the fiscal years of 2022/2023 through 2027/2028 to coincide with the approval and award of a Blue Ribbon Committee (BRC) for the Rehabilitation of Clear Lake "Lake County Storm Water Infrastructure and Program Improvement" Grant Project. The "Lake County Storm Water Infrastructure and Program Improvement Project" is supported by the Lake County Clean Water Program (representation from County, Watershed Protection District, City of Lakeport and City of Clearlake) and was approved for funding by the BRC on September 21, 2021. Storm water management and program upgrades are desperately needed as major storm water project plans and projects have not occurred in the County since 2008. Water within the Clear Lake basin flows from the landscape, over soils and buildings, through storm water infrastructure, and into Clear Lake, which is a major source of the County's drinking water (66%). The lake also provides valuable cultural value and sustenance to our local tribal communities and provides vital habitat for wildlife and fish, of which our water-based tourism economy is extremely reliant. The project includes seven tasks that will jump-start storm water quality improvement, including a combination of planning, implementation and outreach / education activities: The seven tasks, and their Blue Ribbon Committee Grant budget allotments are: 1. Project Administration ($180, 590) 2. Infrastructure Assessment and Improvement Planning ($322,425) 3. Storm Water Management Policy and Procedure Review and Improvement ($339,200) 4. Illicit Discharge & Detection Elimination (IDDE) Program Improvement and Trash Plan Implementation ($706,700) 5. Outreach and Education ($179,300) Not included in tasks overhead / administrative / indirect costs 10% ($172,821) Subtotal of BRC Award Funds: $1,901,036.00 Project total with $500,000 match: $2,401,036.00 Task 4, the IDDE and Trash Plan Implementation Project has been granted funds immediately from Prop68 funds, and is currently in contracting. The remainder of the projects will be approved through the State of California General Fund Budget in May 2023. Based on this schedule, we are asking for an initial $100,000 of this match to be dispensed for the 2023/2024 fiscal year, with additional $100,000 allocated and allotted for each of the following years until 2027/2028. In this final year, it's expected that the Blue Ribbon Committee funds will have since expired, however the intent of these projects is to jump-start the rehabilitation of Storm Water programming in Lake County, and the last year of matching funds are needed to; complete any remaining tasks, solidify any additional funds or grants needed for next steps, and to support staff through the transition of the expiration of funds. Between 2022/2023 to 2027/2028 matching funds will be used: * To ensure project continuity * Contribute to overhead and fringe not included in the grant agreement 10% allocated indirect costs * Unforeseen internal (i.e. labor, staff time) and external (i.e. contractor costs) costs needed to complete the project * Extra monitoring as needed to evaluate project success or as emergencies arise (i.e. post-fire, post flood, structural failures) * Apply for any related storm water grants or funding opportunities that would enhance, extend, continue, maintain, or improve tasks within the project or related * Costs to comply with storm water mandates, state orders or permit requirements * Additional coordinating costs among Clean Water Program Co-Permittees (Lakeport, Clearlake), Blue Ribbon Committee, Project Partners, and any associated agreement costs. We anticipate these matching funds to function on a "roll-over" basis, where unused funds in one fiscal year, can "roll-over" and be counted and used into the next fiscal year for the project tasks. In addition to the gracious match, we are also kindly asking for $50,000 advance in matching funds to ensure programs and grants can start on time with current staff levels and to complete important equipment purchases. The Water Resource Department is not funded with county General Fund monies, and therefore relies heavily on grants and reimbursements to maintain solvency. Therefore $50,000 is requested immediately to provide for a seamless and timely transition to utilize these grant funds and initiate the project. Discussion can follow the presentation and will include participation from Water Resources and Admin Staff, as needed.
