BACKGROUND /REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS The Public Works Department, Supervisor Gioia's office, and the CSA R-9 Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) have been asked by the EI Sobrante Boys & Girls Club to help finance improvements to its outdoor basketball facility located at 4660 Appian Way. The planned improvements include upgrading the deteriorated asphalt playing surface and installing new basketball hoops. The project is expected to take approximately 30 days to complete after the award of funds. The total cost of the proposed project is $50,000 and will be financed by County park dedication funds and private donations. The request for funds to improve the basketball facility is consistentwith the Boys and Girls Club's long-term plan to upgrade and refurbish all of its facilities, and will contribute to its mission to provide recreation opportunities to over 1,200 children in the EI Sobrante area. Supervisor Gioia and the CSA R-9 support the Boys and Girls Club's request forfunds, and there are sufficient funds in the EI Sobrante Park Dedication Trust Fund accounts to meet this request. It is the policy of the County to utilize park dedication funds to meet local park needs and this action is consistent with that policy. TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS E-iK.. Contra FROM: William Walker, M.D., Director �/ Costa Health Services Department O1. `'"""'" "" DATE: October 14, 2008 3 COUPT� C County SUBJECT: Lead Poisoning Prevention Week SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATION: ADOPT Resolution 2008/673 proclaiming October 19 through 25, 2008 as "Lead Poisoning Prevention Week" in Contra Costa County. BACKGROUND: Exposure to lead can cause learning and behavior problems, delayed growth, and other health problems, especially for young children. Children continue to be poisoned by lead in deteriorated lead-based paint in older housing, and by lead in a wide variety of consumer products and other sources. Over 826 Contra Costa children with elevated lead levels have received services from the Contra Costa Lead Poisoning Prevention Project. Many more County residents have been taught about how to prevent lead poisoning and the importance of having children tested for lead. Therefore, it would be appropriate for the Board of Supervisors to proclaim October 19 through 25, 2008 as "Lead Poisoning Prevention Week" in Contra Costa County, and request the support of County residents and organizations in this effort to achieve the goal of having all of our children grow up healthy, lead-free, and able to reach their full potential.
