body
Financial Impact:
A budget transfer is requested from the American Rescue Plan Act to Contributions to Other Agencies to cover the remaining $217,572 of the allocation to Sky View Water District.
Background Information:
On 11/22/22, the Board approved an allocation of $250,000 to the Sky View County Water District for their upgrade project. Sky View Water District provides drinking water services to the Sky View Ranch community in Tehama County. This allocation will partially fund the completion of the portion of the system rehabilitation project that delivers water to the residents of Canyon View Loop and Battle Creek View Estates. The system rehabilitation project consists of constructing 2,100 linear feed of 6-inch raw water main, 13,000 linear feet of 6-inch and 8-inch water main, 0.11-million-gallon storage tank, 122 water services and meters, emergency generator, new electrical service to the well, and miscellaneous electrical improvements.
On 12/13/22, the Board approved a transfer of funds in the amount of $4,997 to issue a warrant to the water district for engineering services to complete the Department of Water Resources application for the Small Community Drought Relief Program.
On 1/9/24, the Board approved a transfer of funds in the amount of $27,431 to cover the cost of removal and relocation of overhead cables and associated joint poles located at the Ponderosa tank site which would interfere with planned improvements.
The Department of Treasury provides updates to guidance and reference documents on a regular basis. Upon review of recent updates, staff identified the need to have a sub-recipient agreement in place with Sky View Water District for the use of the County allocated funds. This agreement will fulfill that requirement and also streamlines the process so that a Board-approved transfer will not be necessary for each submission for reimbursement.
