On February 1, 2011, per City Council Resolution 2011-10, Council approved
submittal of a $30,000 Communities Putting Prevention to Work (CPPW) grant
application, commitment of $10,000 in matching funds and acceptance to enter
into an agreement with SANDAG should funding be awarded.
On March 25, 2011 SANDAG's Board of Directors authorized $30,000 in
Communities Putting Prevention to Work (CPPW) funds for the National City
Safe Routes to School Education and Encouragement Initiative. Required local
matching funds in the amount of $10,000 are available through the Tax
Increment Fund.
Per the grant requirements, the City was expected to execute the agreement
within 1 week of receiving the final, "unsigned" agreement. Therefore, staff
coordinated with the City Attorney's Office to have the Mayor execute the
agreement with the understanding that staff would return to Council for
ratification. No "substantive" changes were made to the "Draft" grant agreement
that Council reviewed on February 1, 2011.
