RESOLVED, by the Board of Supervisors of the County of San Mateo, State of California, that

WHEREAS, the County of San Mateo agreed to work with Trestle Glen Associates (TGA) to construct the F-Street Sidewalk and Streetscape Improvement Project (Project) on F-Street adjacent to the housing development within the Town limits of Colma, which would be financed by Federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ) funding; and

WHEREAS, on August 5, 2008, your board adopted Resolution No. 069627, authorizing the execution of a Memorandum of Understanding with the Town of Colma and TGA for the construction of housing and streetscape on F Street in Colma; and

WHEREAS, on September 9, 2008, your board adopted Resolution No. 069668 executing a “cost-sharing” agreement with TGA for the reimbursement of approximately 12% of the costs for the F-Street Sidewalk and Streetscape Improvement Project in the Town of Colma, with the understanding that the remainder of the cost of the project be financed with CMAQ grant fund;

WHEREAS, TGA has requested to terminate the said “cost-sharing” Agreement for the F-Street Sidewalk and Streetscape Improvement Project; and

WHEREAS, TGA has recently advised the County that it plans to perform the F-Street Sidewalk and Streetscape work with their own funds, and that it plans not to use the CMAQ funding or to contract with the County, and has therefore requested to terminate the said “cost-sharing” Agreement for the F-Street Sidewalk and Streetscape Improvement Project; and
