Why This Vote Matters
The city council unanimously approved applying for grant funding to close a gap in the Richmond/Ohlone Greenway trail. The project would connect existing trail segments into one continuous path for cyclists and walkers, while also restoring Baxter Creek in the same area. This continues the council's strong pattern of supporting infrastructure projects. The grant application requires no city money upfront, though the city would likely need to contribute matching funds if the grant is awarded.
