Rincon is currently working with multiple cities throughout the Bay Area to develop reach codes and <br /> ordinances around these two topics.We will draw on our experience writing ordinances for cities throughout California <br /> and our database of current draft reach codes to provide templates for up to three(3)ordinances/resolutions. <br /> Additional templates can be completed on a time-and-materials basis. <br /> Deliverables: <br /> • Up to three draft ordinance/resolution templates <br /> ASCADIA 8 <br />
