In early 2017, the City <br />experienced damage to the C-5-F Channel between Newhope Street and Harbor Boulevard due to a series <br />of heavy storms. Subsequently, the Governor of California proclaimed a state of emergency, and the <br />President of the United States declared a major disaster for this storm event, which made Federal <br />Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and California Governor's Office of Emergency Services (Cal <br />OES) grant funds available for reimbursement of repairs to damaged facilities. <br />City Council authorized the implementation of emergency repairs to stabilize the C-5-17 Channel that were <br />completed in mid-2017. Since then, City staff has been working with FEMA and Cal OES staff to identify <br />and quantify the losses suffered, and submitted for grant funding. In late 2018, FEMA and Cal OES grant <br />funds totaling $127,011 were obligated for the repair of the damaged C-5-F Channel (Exhibit 1). The Fiscal <br />Year 2019-20 Capital Improvement Program will be amended to include these additional project funds <br />(Exhibit 2). <br />STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT <br />Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #6 - Community Facilities & Infrastructure, <br />Objective #1 (establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City assets), Strategy C (invest <br />60A-1 <br />
