ENGLE, DIRECTOR, COMMUNITY SERVICE SUBJECT: ADOPT RESOLUTION APPROVING APPLICATION F GRANT FUNDS FROM THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA RECREATIONAL TRAILS PROGRAM Statement of Issue,Funding Source,Recommended Action,Alternative Action(s),Analysis,Environmental Status,Attachments) Statement of Issue: A City Council resolution is necessary to apply for grant funds under the State of California, Department of Parks and Recreation, Recreation Trails Program. Grant funds to be used for resurfacing of Blufftop Park Trails. Funding Source: Requested grant amount of $344,520 would require a city match of $46,980, which would be met by city staff in-kind labor for the project. This is a competition grant program. If the city is successful in receiving the grant, specific staff costs and/or required matching funds would be brought back to City Council for final approval. Recommended Action: Motion to: Adopt Resolution No. 2007- 11 Approving the Application for Grant Funds from the State of California Recreational Trails Program. Alternative Action(s): Do not adopt resolution for application for a grant from the State of California Recreational Trails Program for Blufftop Park trail improvements. REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: 2/5/2007 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: CS 07-007 Analysis: The city has an opportunity to apply for a grant from the State of California Recreational Trails Program to resurface 2.11 miles of Blufftop Park, from 9th Street to Seapoint Drive. In 1984, the City of Huntington Beach made improvements over a one-mile bluff area within the Bolsa Chica State Beach. In 2006, the city constructed improvements including replacement of damaged railings, rerouting of the beach trails in areas potentially affected by erosion, and replacement or reparation of concrete work of the beach access-ways. The project scope for this proposed grant funding is for structural surface treatment of the deteriorated trail path, which is heavily used by pedestrians, joggers, bicyclists, roller bladders and skateboarders. The current trail is in disrepair, has disconnected gaps, cracking, and resultant ponding of water which creates a potential hazard for the public. Proposed improvements comply with the requirements for grant funding. If received, funds would enable the city to proceed with improvements to this heavily used trail system. The city operates this portion of Bolsa Chica State Beach under an operating agreement, with the State of California Department of Parks & Recreation, which remains in effect to December 1, 2026. Environmental Status: Necessary environmental review would be completed prior to any improvements. Attachment(s): NumberCity Clerk's Page . Description 1. Resolution No. 2007- 11 2.
