The terms of the Agreement require the County to reimburse the City 12.96% of the total project costs for a total of $133,778.

The total length of the project is approximately six miles. The revised engineer's estimate for construction is $3,563,177, which is a decrease of approximately $600,000.

As part of the Strategic Plan discussion, the Department posed six questions regarding its level of involvement in various activities for the Board's consideration and direction. A summary of the changes is included in the memorandum with this agenda item along with strikeout and clean version of the Strategic Plan. During the discussion of the level of involvement in various Department Activities, the Board provided direction regarding administration of the Vina and Wyandotte Creek GSAs and, to a lesser degree, the Butte GSA. The Board discussion included the Department's role in each GSA as well as each GSA's need for continued administration by member agency staff and their need for long-term financing. The Board expressed its desire that the Vina and Wyandotte Creek GSAs become self-sustaining and financially viable entities with minimal County support in the long-term. However, given the timeline of when funds would likely be available to the GSAs, the Board directed staff to draft a work plan and request for additional resources for the next one to two years to assist the GSAs. The Department prepared a work plan and associated budget estimate for each GSA that would allow the Department to continue to provide administrative support services to the GSAs for fiscal year 2022-23. Additional resources would allow the GSAs to: 1) apply for grant funding for data gaps projects and projects and management actions as identified in the Groundwater Sustainability Plans; 2) prepare the required Annual Reports due April 1, 2023; and 3) identify and implement long-term funding options that would allow the Vina and Wyandotte Creeks GSAs to fund themselves and ensure Sustainable Groundwater Management Act compliance.
