DISCUSSION In November 2006, California voters passed Proposition 84, a $5.4 billon "Safe Drinking Water, Water Quality and Supply, Flood Control, River and Coastal Protection Bond Act. The bond act will provide $368 million in grant funding for new parks and recreational opportunities in critically underserved communities. The $368 million is divided into two rounds of grant opportunities. The first round of applications is due on March 1, 2010. In November 2009, the City of Santa Ana and the Santa Ana Unified School District entered into an agreement for joint use of Willard Intermediate School. Per the joint use agreement, the City manages reservations of the site for youth programs, after school and on weekends.
