Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:

On May 23, 2023, the Board of Supervisors signed Resolution #23-091 authorizing the filing of an application for the sea level rise resiliency strategy project to the California Coastal Commission LCP Local Assistance Grant Program and authorized the Chief Executive Officer to execute the grant agreement and submit all documents if awarded. Furthermore, on October 01, 2023, the County entered into grant Agreement No. LCP-23-09, with the California Coastal Commission in the amount of $342,736.00, through October 31, 2025 which specifically calls out the details of the grant awarded and the subsequent contract.

 

Summary of Request

Per the California Coastal Commission Grant Agreement No. LCP-23-09 for the Sea Level Rise Resilience Strategy & Plan, Task 2 is for the procurement of a consultant to lead the development of the Mendocino County Sea Level Rise Resilience Strategy (SLRRS). The County will coordinate directly with the City of Fort Bragg and City of Point Arena to align this project with Fort Bragg’s awarded Round 8 LCP grant to assess sea level rise concerns specifically at Noyo Harbor and the City of Point Arena’s Sea Level Rise update for the Arena Cove area. This agreement is the direct result of the procurement process where the City of Fort Bragg and County of Mendocino partnered to form a review team for proposals submitted to each jurisdiction.  The work completed by each jurisdiction is anticipated to be complementary and will require coordination between the entities throughout the process.

Do not approve the agreement and provide staff with direction.
