Rohnert Park ("City")executed a funding agreement in which the County committed to
providing $1,134,960 to the City for operating expenses at Labath Landing in Fiscal Year 2023-
24; and
WHEREAS,the City's initial operating support request for Labath Landing was
calculated based on an assumption that the project would support a total of 60 people per day
