Title: Authorizing Update and Correction to the Department of Utilities (DOU) Fiscal Year (FY) 2025/26 Operating Grant Program and Fund
Summary
The Sacramento City Council is considering legislation to authorize updates and corrections to the Department of Utilities (DOU) Fiscal Year (FY) 2025/26 Operating Grant Program. The proposed resolution seeks to rescind a prior resolution due to incorrect fund references and allows the City Manager to apply for a grant from the Central Valley Flood Protection Board. If awarded, up to $340,000 will be allocated to establish the DOU Operating Grant Program and its associated budget. This funding is intended to address unplanned maintenance and abatement of hazardous conditions caused by illegal dumping near waterways, particularly in areas affected by homelessness. This initiative is crucial for enhancing flood protection and environmental sustainability in Sacramento.
