DIRECT the Real Property Division to have the above-referenced Grant Deed recorded in the Office of the County Recorder. 11. Financial Impact: Payment of$31,000 from Drainage Area 56 funds. 111. Reasons for Recommendations and Backaround: These property rights are required for the East Antioch Creek project, part of the East Antioch Creek Watershed Area Drainage Improvement Plan. The marsh between Wilbur Avenue and Cavallo Road will be cleaned up and opened to increased tidal water flow preserving and enhancing the riparian habitat. Over time, the project will result in the reversion of the existing freshwater marsh to a more natural saline marsh. The parcels being conveyed total 1.09± acres located in the heart of the marsh area. The property owner agreed to the District's purchase on the condition that the marsh be named in memory of her mother, Mrs. Julia Cox Freeman, who was the previous owner of the property. Mrs. Freeman was a resident of the City of Antioch for forty-five years and raised her four children there. According to her daughter, she was a good citizen, was devoted to her family and loved the wildlife which lived on her property. Mr. Victor Carniglia, Deputy Director of Community Development for the City of Antioch, .has already reviewed and approved the proposed name. IV. Consequences of Negative Action: The District will be unable to protect and preserve this valuable environmentally sensitive habitat.
