1984/85 ROBERTI-Z'BERG ALLOCATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Resolution No. 85-38 authorizing the application for grant funds under
the Robertt-Z'Berg Urban Open Space and Recreation Program.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$19,810 in State Grant Funds would be received by the City. A 25% local match
would be required.
BACKGROUND:
The passage of Proposition 18 has provided $45 million for the Robertt Z'Berg
Urban Open Space and Recreation Program statewtde over a two year period. The
City of Tustin is eligible for $19,810 for 19B4/85 and an additional $19,810 in
1985/86. The deadline for application for 1984/8S funds is May 1, 1985.
The Robertt-Z'Berg Grant Program requires that the City provide matching funds
totaling 25% of the grant amount from non-state sources. Funds from the program
may be used for the rehabilitation of existing parks, new development, new
acquisition, additions to existing sites, and Joint projects. Operation and
maintenance costs may also be funded with grant monies. Up to 15% of the grant
amount may be expended on specific project planning. Projects located on school
grounds are ineligible unless agreements are obtained for long-term use and
access for recreation purposes.
Staff suggests that grant funds from the Robertt Z'Berg Urban Open Space and
Recreation Program be used to fund improvements for Tiller Days at
Columbus-Tustin Park. A $26,500 project of general improvements including
installation of electrical transformers, wiring, turf renovation, shade trees
and wind screens is proposed. The 1984/85 Roberti Z'Berg Urban Open Space and
Recreation Program allocation would fund 75% of the project. A project must be
designated on a City owned or leased site prior to the May 1 deadline for
applications. The deadline for 1985/86 applications should be in May of 1986
which would allow additional time for project selection for the $19,810
allocated for 1985/86.
