III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
By resolution dated January 21 , 1958 , the Board of
Supervisors of Contra Costa County gave assurances of local
cooperation to the Corps of Engineers for the Walnut Creek
Project . Among these assurances are requirements to pay in
cash 7 .4 percent of the Federal project construction cost
and to provide for the relocation of all roads , bridges and
utilities required for the project . The Corps of Engineers
has agreed to include relocation work in the Federal project
at 100 percent local cost to be paid as "Contri buted Funds
Other" .
On August 26 , 1986 the Board of Supervisors approved and
executed a Joint Exercise 'of Powers Agreement with the City
of Walnut Creek which obligated the Flood Control District
to pay 7 . 4 percent of the cost of a channel cover funded by
the City and included in the Federal project as a
"Contributed Fund Other" item .
Under current State law the local cost of relocation work
required for the Federal Walnut Creek Project is
reimbursable by the ' Department of Water Resources at 100
percent for San Ramon Bypass and at 90 percent for Upper
Pine Creek .
IV . CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION :
Failure to authorize the issuance of a warrant would be
cause for the Corps of Engineers to stop further work on the
Walnut Creek Project .
