Fiscal Impact/Change to Net County Cost
The 25% County match of $12,221 will be met with OHV Vehicle In-Lieu Fees for costs associated with law enforcement on the Rubicon Trail.
Background:
The Sheriff's Office applies annually for this grant funding to fund the costs of patrol of the Rubicon Trail. The grant, from the State Department of Parks and Recreation, provides 75% of the operating costs, and the County is responsible for a 25% match.
Reason for Recommendation
On September 11, 2012, the Sheriff's Office received notification of a grant award from State Department of Parks and Recreation in the amount of $36,661. Law enforcement salary and benefits, as well as general operating expenses for law enforcement on the Rubicon Trail are eligible project costs under this grant. There is a 25% County Match which is proposed to be met through the use of OHV In-Lieu Fees to offset salary, overtime paid to deputies who patrol the Rubicon Trail during the OHV high season months, and operating costs. The performance period for grant funding is July 8, 2012 through July 7, 2013.
Action(s) to be taken following Board approval
Sheriff will sign and date 5 copies of the Project Agreement and forward to State Department of Parks and Recreation
