- CITY OF COLTON AGENDA REPORT For Council Meeting of-MrCh 7 , 1989 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Rich Holmer, Human Services Director.,` SUBJECT:APPROVAL OF INTERAGENCY AGREEMENT FOR DEVELOP -Date: 2/27/89 MENT OF A SANTA ANA RIVER CORRIDOR MASTER PLAN For the past several years representatives from San Bernardino, Riverside, Orange Counties, and cities which adjoin the Santa Ana River have met to discuss the development of a plan for recreation trails along this corridor. When completed the "Crest to Coast" trail would link the San Bernardino mountains to the Pacific Ocean. To facilitate this process it is necessary to develop a master trail system plan which will provide a comprehensive approach to the conservation, preservation, and recreation opportunities available along the river. With the eminent development of Agua Mansa Park (Colton landfill and adjoining sites) as a stopover for recreational user groups, such as equestrian, bicyclist, and joggers, it is vital for the City to join other jurisdictions in the Santa Ana River master plan process. RECOMMENDATION It is staff recommendation that Council approve the interagency agreement for development of a Santa Ana River Corridor Master Plan;and authorize the Mayor to sign this agreement on behalf of the Council. In addition it is recommended that Council approve an amount, not to exceed $6,000, as the City of Colton's contribution toward the development of a master trail system plan. These monies are available through the Park Develop- ment Fee Fund and have been appropriated during F.Y. 88-89 expressly for this purpose. The City Attorney has reviewed this agreement and has approved it as to form. City Manager's Concurrence: Attachments: Interagency Agreement Page 1 of 1 Item No.
