8/3/23, 8:34 AM about:blank <br />about:blank 5/6 <br />Section V : <br />Administration <br />1. Describe any previous experience the project proponent has with similar projects. Include a list of recent <br />past projects the proponent has successfully completed if applicable. Project applicant or manager having <br />no previous experience with similar projects should discuss any past experiences that may help show a <br />capacity to successfully complete the project being proposed. This may include partnering with a more <br />experienced organization that can provide project support. : The Project Manager for this project will be a <br />contracted consultant through the City of Pleasanton with guidance from Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department <br />(LPFD). LPFD has fire prevention personnel who have worked on fuels management reduction efforts in City of <br />Oakland Parks which included use of fuels crews provided by CAL FIRE. Additionally, LPFD will use its resources <br />and partnerships with Alameda County Fire, East Bay Regional Parks experienced fuels management crews for <br />guidance on best practices and defensible space strategies. In addition, LPFD staff has experience in Goat herding <br />contracts ensuring resources are available to provide for herd health and safety. We will also use an environmental <br />consultant to ensure land, environment, and wildlife care and protection is taken to a reasonable degree during and <br />after our fuels reduction project. <br />2. Identify who will be responsible for tracking project expenses and maintaining project records in a <br />manner that allows for a full audit trail of any awarded grant funds. : The City of Pleasanton will hire a <br />consultant to be responsible for tracking project expenses and maintaining project records. Assistance in these <br />efforts will be provided by the Operations Department and Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department. <br />Section VI : <br />Budget <br />A detailed project budget should be provided in the online budget included in this solicitation. The space provided <br />here is to allow for a narrative description to further explain the proposed budget. <br />1. Explain how the grant funds, if awarded, will be spent to support the goals and objectives of the project. <br />If equipment grant funds are requested, explain how the equipment will be utilized and maintained beyond <br />the life of the grant. : The grant funds will be used to remove significant growth of non-native species in terrain <br />that are non navigable with our current equipment as well as dead species, brush and debris approximately 100 <br />feet on either side of the public trail as is designated in our area of work map. The equipment will provide ability to <br />masticate on site and on slopes up to 60 degrees. The chipper will be used to chip and broadcast on site to help <br />limit regrowth in the project area as well as minimize off-haul. The masticator can be used in all open space parks <br />within the City of Pleasanton and will allow the city to continue to maintain the project area beyond the life of the <br />grant. The chipper will allow us to reduce the amount of offhaul from the site and efficiently process downed fuels. <br />All equipment purchased will be maintained under the maintenance schedule by the City's in house Parks Division <br />at the Operations Services Yard. <br />2. Are the costs for each proposed activity reasonable for the geographic area where they are to be <br />performed? Identify any costs that are higher than usual and explain any special circumstances within the <br />project that makes these increased costs necessary to achieve the goals and objectives of the project. : <br />Project costs have been determined using a number of metrics, including quotes for equipment from manufacturers, <br />goat procurement companies, and existing contracts with vegetation management consultants. The costs are <br />reasonable and based on a lot of research for each step of the project scope. We don't believe our costs are too <br />high and are based on actual estimates of equipment and work, extrapolated for our project. <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 98FB7961-F08C-47CE-A80C-DBDFF69A1604
