Adopt formal decision affirming compliance with state surplus land law to qualify for federal transportation grants

OBAG Grant EligibilityGovernance

In Plain English

The Metropolitan Transportation Commission requires cities to confirm they follow state law when selling surplus property. This law requires cities to first offer surplus land to affordable housing developers before selling on the open market. If Richmond doesn't adopt this formal decision, the city becomes ineligible for federal transportation grants through the One Bay Area Grant program.
