DESCRIPTION: The Safe Neighborhood Parks, Clean Water, Clean Air, and Coastal
Protection Bond Act of 2000 was passed by the voters in March 2000 and provided funds for local
assistance grants. The City of Dublin qualifies for funding under two of the grant programs funded by the
Bond Act.
The Per Capita Grant Program provides funding for park development projects for cities, counties, eligible
districts and regional park districts. Funding is based on the population found within the boundaries of
these jurisdictions. The allocation to the City of Dublin is $295,000. Eligible projects include
acquisition, development, improvement, rehabilitation, ~restoration, enhancement and the development of
interpretive facilities of local parks and recreational lands and facilities, including renovation of
recreational facilities conveyed to local agencies resulting from the downsizing or decommissioning of
federal military installations. Per Capita grant funds can only be used for capital outlay.
The Roberti-Z'Berg-Harris Grant Program provides funding to high priority projects that satisfy the most
urgent park and recreational needs in California. The funds are allocated on the basis of population and
the allocation to the City of Dublin is $94,628. Eligible projects included acquisition, development,
rehabilitation, special major maintenance and innovative recreation programs.
The first step in the grant process is to submit a signed resolution from the Grantee's governing body.
Although the resolution does not indicate the project that the grants funds are for, the City Council
approved this year's budget which allocated these funds for' the renovation of the Dublin Sports Grounds.
