The agreement allows the County and City to work together to apply for and administer federal grants, including Community Development Block Grants (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships funding, and Emergency Solutions Grants, for program years 2027-28 through 2032-33.
The Board also authorized County officials to sign the agreements and any related documents needed to manage these programs and ensure compliance with federal requirements.
Countywide Highlights:

Item No. 19 - The Board of Supervisors approved the purchase of a Megawatt Charging System Test Kit for $112,000. The equipment will be used to test and verify the accuracy of high-powered electric vehicle charging stations to ensure customers are being charged correctly for the electricity they receive.
Item No. 70 - The Board of Supervisors approved placing Measure I on the November 3, 2026, ballot for voters to decide whether to continue the existing one-half cent sales tax that funds local transportation projects throughout San Bernardino County. The tax would continue supporting road repairs, traffic congestion relief, public transportation, and other transportation improvements across the county.
The Board also consolidated the measure with the countywide election, directed the Registrar of Voters to prepare and distribute all required election materials, and designated the proposal as Measure I. In addition, the Board determined that placing the measure on the ballot is exempt from environmental review because it does not approve or commit funding to any specific transportation project.
