SUMMARY
The Development Services Department is requesting that the City Council adopt a resolution to authorize the City Manager, on behalf of HASPA, to accept an Adaptation Planning Grant from Caltrans for $509,000, and negotiate and execute a Memorandum of Understanding with HARD and EBRPD, to complete the Hayward Regional Shoreline Master Plan. HASPA proposes to meet the 11.47 percent local match requirement through in-kind-services totaling $175,000 in value. In-kind-services would consist of staff time only to manage the completion of the project.
The Hayward Regional Shoreline Master Plan will provide a suite of mitigation actions and policy recommendations to improve the City’s capacity to plan for, prepare for, mitigate against, and adapt to sea level rise. The project will focus on protecting the City’s most important natural and community assets.
