MOTION - COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT GRANTS DETERMINATION  
- VINCE HARPER’S SOUTH PARK DAY & NIGHT FESTIVAL  
BACKGROUND: The Community Advisory Board (CAB) reviews and  
approves the 2026 Community Improvement Grant Applications. The  
Board shall award grants to the applicants whose projects best meet  
the criteria. There are two grants that have been submitted for the  
July-Aug 2026 period:  
EFZM Engage is requesting $2,500 to support the 2026 Harper's South  
Park Day & Night Festival, a free community event that connects  
families with essential health, wellness, and community resources. The  
festival provides free food, entertainment, a family movie, prizes,  
vaccinations, reading glasses, and resources. Building on the success  
of last year's event, which offered on-site vaccinations and vision  
services, EFZM Engage plans to continue these services and expand  
access by hopefully adding dental care. The festival promotes health,  
education, and community engagement while increasing awareness of  
available services and programs.  
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Communications and  
Intergovernmental Relations Department that the Community Advisory  
Board, by motion, determine the dispersion of this Community  
Improvement Grant for the July-Aug 2026 period.

MOTION - COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT GRANTS  
DETERMINATION-NEW ROSELAND REGIONAL LIBRARY MOSAIC  
SCULPTURE  
The Sonoma County Library Foundation is requesting $2,500 to  
support community engagement activities for the New Roseland  
Regional Library Mosaic Sculpture project. The mosaic will serve as a  
welcoming visual landmark that reflects the culture, heritage, and  
identity of the Roseland community. A central component of the project  
is community participation, with opportunities for residents to help  
shape the artwork through public workshops, artist meet-and-greets,  
design feedback sessions, and the unveiling event. The project aims to  
incorporate local voices and lived experiences into the final design  
while fostering community connection, ownership, and creative  
engagement.  
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Communications and  
Intergovernmental Relations Department that the Community Advisory  
Board, by motion, determine the dispersion of this Community  
Improvement Grant for the July-Aug 2026 period.
