Warrant No. 1 100% 7520 6138687 SAS 3541 $120,000.00
III. Reasons for Recommendations and 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 andto 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 a "Contributed Funds Other" item.
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 channel cover funded by the City and included in the Federal
project as a "Contributed Fund Other" item.
On January 15, 1991, the Board-of Supervisors approved payment for two (2) warrants totaling
$127,208.67 for the period January, 1991 through March, 1991, as requested by the Corps of
Engineers at that time. However, the Corps of Engineers had not accounted for all costs
payable for that period and has requested the supplemental payment in addition to the third
quarter Fiscal Year 1991 payment.
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.
