opportunities authorized by the Legislature to assist public entities in the safe and effective
management of the waste stream These funding opportunities include grants to fund street
rehabilitation using rubberized asphalt concrete, playground equipment and fall -zone cushioning,
and programs to reduce waste from entering the landfill The City desires to apply for a Tire -Derived
Product grant which would fund the rubberized play area at the "Universally Accessible Playground"
proposed for the Beach area This Resolution would enable staff to apply for these grants for up to
five years
Financial Impact
There is no matching requirement for the Grant

products made from recycled tires

Meeting Date 10/5/2015
The grant program is an annual application process so the City has the potential, based on qualified
projects, to apply each year CalRecycle requires a resolution with each application but allows
cities to adopt one resolution to cover a five (5) year period Accordingly, the attached resolution
authorizes the submittal of CalRecycle applications for the next five years under this grant program,
and identifies the City Manager or his designee as the officer authorized to sign agreements,
contracts, and requests for payment In accordance with City practice, any grant awarded by
CalRecycle will be brought back to Council for authorization to accept and appropriate the grant
funds
