SUBJECT: Cooperation with City of Martinez on Civic Center and Downtown
Martinez Planning
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)5 BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize County Administrator to coordinate staff from various
departments to cooperate with the City of Martinez in the Civic
Center and downtown Martinez planning effort.
BACKGROUND -
Recently an informal discussion was held between members of the
Martinez City Council and Supervisors Fanden and Schroder to
consider the desirability of formalizing a cooperative effort in
the long-range planning for revitalizing downtown Martinez. The
City of Martinez would like the County to . participate in . the
planning for the development of:
♦ An intermodal facility.
♦ Initiation of a Main Street U.S.A. Program.
♦ Feasibility of a municipal court locating in downtown
Martinez.
The County realizes that its presence in downtown Martinez has a
major impact and is interested in working with the City in
discussing downtown public development activities. Although the
County is willing to participate in the planning, it is unable to
provide any financial assistance at this time due to severe budget
constraints; therefore, County involvement would strictly be
limited to joint planning efforts. Any requests for financial
assistance as a result of the planning would be brought back to the
Board for consideration.
The City has provided a letter and resolution along these lines and
is attached for your information.
