The Building is part of the Rosie the Riveter / World War II Home Front National Historic Park. The County is the former owner of the site of the Maritime Center. In 2007, while the County still owned the Maritime Center, the County entered into a Cooperative Agreement with the NPS. Under the Cooperative Agreement, the County and the NPS agreed to share expenses incurred in the restoration and preservation of the Maritime Center. Under a task agreement issued in connection with the Cooperative Agreement, the County and the NPS agreed to share the estimated $130,000 cost of repairing the roof of the Maritime Center. The NPS earmarked $65,000 for the project; however, the County did not make the proposed repairs due to budget constraints. In April 2010, in support of the effort to preserve the historical qualities of the property, the County donated the property to the Trust. Since taking title to the property, the Trust has made extensive repairs to the Maritime Center, including repair of the roof. The roof repair cost approximately $138,750. The NPS is willing to modify the task agreement to make the $65,000 available as a partial reimbursement of the cost of the roof repair. Under the modified task agreement, the NPS will pay the $65,000 to the County in recognition of (i) the County having satisfied the non-Federal matching requirements that govern the Cooperative Agreement by transferring the property to the Trust, and (ii) the roof repairs having been made by the Trust in accordance with the Cooperative Agreement. As permitted by California Government Code Section 26227, the funds received from the NPS will be transferred to the Trust in accordance with the terms of a memorandum of understanding between the County and the Trust. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: The modified task agreement and the memorandum of understanding will not be executed and the funds set aside by the NPS for repairing the roof of the Maritime Center will not be made available to the Trust. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: Not applicable.
