Board to convene grant-planning summit with elected officials once project descriptions are ready
Summary
Members agreed to compile potential funding opportunities, prepare project descriptions, and convene a working group and a summit with elected officials to pursue grants and appropriations for FY26/27.
Board members agreed they should assemble project descriptions and a consolidated inventory of grant opportunities, then convene a working group and a summit with elected officials to seek funding for projects slated for FY 26/27. "We should get all of our opportunities in one place," one board member said, urging a stakeholder meeting once a project description is available.
The General Manager offered to do preliminary work and update a spreadsheet of potential opportunities and recommended staff set a grant meeting immediately after the project description is finalized to walk through responsibilities and timelines. Members discussed timing because budgets for FY 26/27 will be set soon and securing commitments before a Prop 218 vote would affect community costs.
