The project will enhance the freshwater marsh habitat, both <br />surrounding the lake and to the east of the lake, and connect the flood <br />control channel to the lake with a band of native wetland and riparian <br />habitat. To accomplish this, non-native exotic grasses will be removed, <br />and native plants, along with plant and wildlife interpretive signage <br />will be installed. <br />The Centennial Peninsula Waterfowl Sanctuary Project at Centennial Park <br />consists of the re-creation of ecological conditions conducive to the <br />nesting of waterfowl currently at the site, which has the potential to <br />attract additional species. The project includes automatic irrigation <br />system modifications and native planting. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. <br />Gerardo Mouet <br />Executive Director <br />Parks, Recreation and <br />Community Services Agency <br />I <br />
