FROM: Tom Powers , Fi:rst District Supervisor
Costa
DATE: August 20, 1987 County
S U BJECTt CALIFORNIA CONSERVATION CORPS
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Direct the County Administrator and all relevant departments
to search their present and future contract opportunities
for landscaping, park renovation, fencing, trail development
and other conservation work which cannot be completed by
county staff, and consider whether or not the California
Conservation Corps can complete the work. Report due in six
months to the Board of Supervisors on the status of this
effort.
BACKGROUND:
The California Conservation Corps will relocate on December
31, 1987 to a Richmond school they are rehabilitating. This .
move will afford more opportunities for Contra Costa
County' s young people to become productive citizens through
the hard work and training offered by the Corps. Also,
agencies such as the County have the opportunity to utilize
their services and productivity while expending fewer
resources to accomplish conservation work.
We should particularly consider contracting with them to
assist the Flood Control Department on the Wildcat/San Pablo
Creeks project and other flood control replanting programs
as we have in the past.
