A Committee was formed pursuant to the terms of the MOU for the specific purpose of preparing a recommended two year Expenditure Plan which is subject to final approval of the Richmond City Council and the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors. This Expenditure Plan provides a means for the City and County to jointly administer the Mitigation Fee funding for the benefit of the host community, as described in the BMPC Draft Environmental Impact Report dated November 2003. The first Expenditure Plan was approved by the Richmond City Council and the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors in September 2006 ("Expenditure Plan" as used hereafter refers to the 2006/2007 North Richmond Waste & Recovery Mitigation Fee Expenditure Plan, which may be amended from time to time by the City Council and Board of Supervisors). The MOU requires that the Mitigation Fee monies be paid to the County and held in a dedicated account. This contract will provide a framework for the County to transfer Mitigation Fee monies to the City for administrative staff costs related to the implementation and oversight of the Expenditure Plan as well as other expenses directly related to each activity ("Strategy') described in the Expenditure Plan which the Agency will directly oversee/administer.
