Background
On July 25, 2023, the Board of Supervisors received an update on the American Rescue Plan (ARP) and a set of recommendations from staff for the use of the remaining funding. At that time, staff recommended setting aside $500,000 for the Community Benefit Equal Allocation Plan. The Plan equally allocated a portion of that funding to each of the five supervisorial districts, allowing each Supervisor to provide grants to local Community-Based Organizations (CBO) operating within their districts. The Board approved the plan at that meeting, further augmenting the funding to a total of $750,000.
A brief description of the funding proposal follows:
Natalie's Corner
This agreement would provide $25,000 from District 2 and $25,000 from District 4, totaling $50,000 for the Natalie Corona Fund. Yolo Community Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that is the donation fund holder, earmarking/note for the Natalie Corona Fund. Funds will be used to revitalize Natalie's Corner in the northwest corner of Central Park located at the intersection of B and Fifth Streets.
