BACKGROUND:
Measure K is the half-cent general sales tax initially approved by San Mateo County voters in November 2012 and extended in November 2016 for a total of thirty years. The Board of Supervisors (“Board”) and County staff have conducted study sessions and community outreach efforts to inform priorities for Measure K spending for FY 2017-19.
On May 16, 2017, the Board approved the FY 2017-19 Measure K allocation plan in which the County anticipates Measure K receipts of approximately $81.6 million annually. The plan included $7 million in one-time loans or grants each year during FY 2017-19, divided equally among the five supervisorial districts, for district-specific needs and projects. District Two has submitted a request to use its district-discretionary Measure K funds as shown below and described in the Project Summary section of this memorandum:

District 2 (Supervisor Carole Groom) - Mid-Peninsula Boys & Girls Club: Roof and Gym Door Repairs |
$160,500 |
This item is consistent with the criteria for district-discretionary Measure K funds approved by the Board in December 2018.
PROJECT SUMMARY:
This is a request to authorize a grant to the Mid-Peninsula Boys & Girls Club (Boys & Girls Club), and resulting grant agreement in an amount not to exceed $160,500 to support repairs to the roof and gym doors at the John Dore clubhouse, located at 200 North Quebec Street, in San Mateo. The County Manager’s Office will administer the proposed grant agreement.
The Boys & Girls Club provides programs and activities that increase academic success, build leadership, and develop healthy lifestyles for local, low-income youth from San Mateo County who attend the John Dore clubhouse. The Boys & Girls Club has identified two projects that are needed to improve the overall safety of the facility that serves approximately 200 youth annually: replacing the roof and gym doors.
Roof replacement is needed to keep the clubhouse waterproof and safe from the outside elements. The roof replacement includes removal of the existing gym, game room and classroom roofs, installation of insulation, and replacement with a Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) roof. The proposed roof replacement is expected to ensure the continued safe operation of the John Dore clubhouse for the next 20 years (until 2040).
The Boys & Girls Club also proposes to upgrade the gym doors at the John Dore clubhouse to provide a more safe and secure environment for the youth participants. The new steel doors equipped with new rod and latch system will allow the Boys & Girls Club to lock down the various sections of the John Dore clubhouse in case of an emergency.
Total Measure K Request: Not to Exceed $160,500
