Airport      Library    TIMELINE: November 29, 2018 Information Systems      Grant Coordinator    SUMMARY STATEMENT: The Valley Soil & Water Conservation District have deemed the erosion and undermining of the bank along the North Fork of the Payette River at Riverfront Park a priority and have allocated $28,461.00 dollars from DEQ 319 Grant Funding, engineering, and permiting to mitigate the problem. With the funding and engineering support of the Valley Soil & Water Conservation District and the rock source from the Warren Wagon Road project, the overall scope of work is currently acheivable. These funds are competitively sought after by many entities with viable projects throughout Valley County. The timing of these funds did not coincide with the budget and CIP process and the City is obligated to a 40% match contribution on the total project cost, which equates to $18,974. After assessing priorities, the Parks Department is currently in a position to capitalize on the availability of these funds to mitigate the problem this fall/early winter while monies are still available and the river is low. In order to meet the match contribution, staff would like to reallocate a portion (6%) of the department’s budgeted captial funds for pathway maintenance slated for FY19 to this project. A copy of the Schedule of Operations Contract and Riverfront Park Drawings are attached.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve the Conservation Program Agreement with Valley Soil & Water Conservation District, reallocate $18,974.00 from the capital pathways project to the fund the contribution match required by the agreement, and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
