These allocations are provided under two different programs, the Per Capita and the Roberti-Z’berg-Harris (RZH). Butte County receives a direct allocation under Proposition 40 of $1,200,000 for the Per Capita program and $161,728 under the RZH program. On 10/26/04, the Board of Supervisors approved resolutions authorizing the pass through of its $161,728 Proposition 40 RZH funds and $188,373 of its Per Capita funds to the City of Chico, for a total of $350,101. At its 11/5/04 meeting, the Bidwell Park and Playground Commission (BPPC) recommended (7-0) that the City Council accept the pass through of the County’s Proposition 40 funds to help complete Phase II of the lighting and irrigation improvements to the One Mile Recreation Area and to provide additional funding for the replacement of the One Mile pool dam. By memorandum dated 12/15/04, the Park Director submitted two resolutions authorizing the acceptance of these pass-through funds and the submittal of project applications to the California Department of Recreation for the use of these funds. With the adoption of the resolutions, staff also recommended that the City Council: (1) approve a supplemental appropriation to increase the 2004-05 Capital Grants/Reimbursement Fund (300) budgeted revenues by $350,101; (2) allocate corresponding expenditures from Fund 300; and (3) allocate $37,090 capital project overhead from the Park Fund (002). The City Council was provided with copies of the Capital Grants/Reimbursement Fund (300) and Park Fund (002) fund summaries which reflect the 06/30/05 estimated fund balances. The Bidwell Park and Playground Commission and the Park Director recommended adoption of the resolutions and approval of the supplemental appropriation. 2.2.

This resolution authorized the City Manager to execute the grant of license. The Director of Public Works recommended adoption of this resolution. January 4, 2005 Page 4 of 8 2.3. RESOLUTION NO. 80 04-05 — A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHICO ADOPTING TRAFFIC REGULATION (AMENDMENT NO. 788) By memorandum dated 12/8/04, the Director of Public Works forwarded a recommendation from the Parking Place Commission to approve the proposed parking modifications which will facilitate the new transit consolidation and future transit center construction. Because the proposed bus staging areas both during and after construction of the new transit center will be relocated, parking modifications will be necessary. Although a loss of eight metered parking spaces is anticipated, two additional spaces will be added in Municipal Parking Lot No. 7, and four spaces will be gained along West 1st Street, resulting in a net loss of only two metered parking spaces. These changes will facilitate the construction of the transit center. The City Council was provided with a copy of a letter dated 3/17/04 from BCAG regarding the location of the transit center. The Director of Public Works recommended the adoption of Traffic Regulation Amendment No. 788. 2.4. MINUTE ORDER NO. 01-05 — AUTHORIZATION FOR THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AND RECORD CONSENT TO IRREVOCABLE OFFER OF DEDICATION PURSUANT TO A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH DEVELOPER MBD, INC. The City Attorney submitted a proposed minute order authorizing the City Manager to execute and record a consent to the irrevocable offer of dedication of approximately 5.24 acres of real property located on the Belvedere Heights Subdivision, north and east of the intersection of the easterly extension of East 20th Street and Potter Road.

  • Title Ix and Baseball: How the Contact Sports Exemption Denies Women Equal Opportunity to America’S Pastime
    \\jciprod01\productn\N\NVJ\14-3\NVJ311.txt unknown Seq: 1 5-JUN-14 7:37 TITLE IX AND BASEBALL: HOW THE CONTACT SPORTS EXEMPTION DENIES WOMEN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY TO AMERICA’S PASTIME Brittany K. Puzey* INTRODUCTION Imagine yourself as a child. I know, I know, it seems a little silly and perhaps even oxymoronic to try to imagine simpler times while reading a legal article, but I implore you to do so. Each of us had something that we aspired to become, be it a racecar driver or a rock star, a ballerina or a ball-player. Do you remember what your aspiration was? For many kids, early dreams and aspira- tions planted the seed for a real career—a seed that gradually blossomed as those children learned what they liked and what they ultimately desired. That tiny seed of “make believe” helped them to decide how to achieve their particu- lar career choice. Would-be doctors began studying extra hard and taking advanced classes. Hopeful singers belted out tunes at the top of their lungs and enrolled in vocal lessons. Aspiring baseball players joined local teams, where they worked hard at practice—running sprints, catching flies, taking extra cuts, and lifting weights. Slowly, but surely, dreams began to morph into reality. In today’s society, laws of equal opportunity generally promote and encourage children of both genders to pursue whichever career choice they desire.1 Little girls who dream of becoming baseball players, however, do not have this opportunity. Instead, Title IX’s Contact Sports Exemption essentially denies women the chance to pursue baseball as a legitimate career, or even to play the sport at the collegiate level.

  • A's News Clips, Tuesday, February 22, 2011 Kevin Kouzmanoff Says
    A’s News Clips, Tuesday, February 22, 2011 Kevin Kouzmanoff says he's still happy to be with Oakland A's despite team's efforts to replace him By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune PHOENIX -- Kevin Kouzmanoff emphasized Monday that he's happy to still be an Athletic, which is noteworthy after an offseason in which the A's searched aggressively to replace him at third base. Kouzmanoff said his feelings weren't hurt that the A's made a reported six-year, $76 million offer to free agent Adrian Beltre. Or that they talked with the Seattle Mariners about trading for Chone Figgins. "I feel like I'm ready to have a productive year, and I want to help the team make the playoffs and win a championship," he said. "What they're going to do business-wise is what they're going to do. I have no control over that. But I'm confident in my ability to play third base." Manager Bob Geren knew Kouzmanoff was aware of the buzz surrounding his uncertain status in the winter. That's why Geren chatted with him before the A's took the field for their first full-squad workout Monday. "There wasn't much that needed to be said," Geren said. "I let him know he's a major league third baseman, and he's ours, and I'm happy he's here. He knows that teams look at other players." Kouzmanoff's 16 homers led the A's last season -- his first with the team -- and his 71 RBIs tied Kurt Suzuki for the team lead.
