of the County, Grant Agreement #28-626-7 (08/09 DUIPP-2) with San Diego State University Research

FISCAL IMPACT•
Acceptance of this Grant Agreement will result in $72,000 for the grant period. No County funds are required.
BACKGROIJND/REASON(S)FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
The West Contra Costa cities of Richmond and San Pablo have 29% of Contra Costa's motor vehicle/pedestrian
collisions, although they represent only 13% of the County's population. The California Office of Traffic Safety
ranked San Pablo 6th out the 96 cities in its size category and Richmond 13'h out of 50 in its size category of
pedestrians under the age of 15 killed.and injured. The Contra Costa Health Services Injury Prevention will
administer the "StreetWISE" II" project. This "StreetWISE" Il project will build upon existing policy
recommendations. The goal of this project is to continue to influence public policy to create safe community
walking and bicycling environments for children 8-18 years of age in the Cities of Richmond and San Pablo.
San Diego State University Research Foundation has requested to be held harmless and indemnified as part of their
standard for approval of the Agreement with the County. Except for funding this Project, San Diego State
University will have no direct involvement in the implementation of this Project. Therefore, in the view of County
Risk Management, this indemnification;will create a minimal potential loss. The Health Services Department
desires to expedite approval of the Agreement as written.
Four certified copies of the Board Order should be returned to the Contracts and Grants Unit.
