DISCUSSION The City authorized the submittal of a grant application to the RCO in May 2018 (RCO ALEA grant#18-2023). The RCO requires the applicant submit an Application Authorization Form in the form of a City Resolution. Note that this resolution also includes authorization to submit a Parks acquisition grant to RCO and the Community Development and Neighborhoods Committee is being briefed on that project. FISCAL IMPACT The RCO grant application total is $314,400 and requires a 50% City match, or$157,200.

There will be no impact to the City's General Fund.
