Grantee agrees to be as fully responsible to OPR for the acts and omissions of Partners and subcontractors and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by any of them as it is for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by Grantee. Grantee's obligation to pay Partners and subcontractors is an independent obligation from OPR's obligation to make payments to Grantee. As a result, OPR shall have no obligation to pay or to enforce the payment of any moneys to any Partner or subcontractor. 3. No Third -Party Beneficiaries This Grant Agreement is not intended for the benefit of any person or entity other than the Parties, and no one other than the Parties themselves may enforce any of the rights or obligations created by this Grant Agreement. 4.

Sincerely, Sam Assefa Director Governor's Office of Planning and Research Page 22 Exhibit F, Award Letter Office of Planning and Research - Adaptation Planning Grant Program - Round 1 Grant Number: OPRXXXXX, [GRANTEE] Exhibit G, Grant Application San Rafael Ciimale Adaplaiion Planning Collaborative Application Materials General Narrative Questions Applicant Information Proposed Project Name: San Rafael Climate Adaptation Planning Collaborative Lead Applicant: City of San Rafael, California Project Vision & Priorities The Canal is a vibrant community of more than 12,000 residents from all over the world; however, it is one of the most vulnerable to climate change in the entire state. The Canal is built upon subsiding reclaimed land that is already lower than today's high tides. The shoreline is a discontinuous network of public and private assets, which the Army Corps noted was inadequate for flood protection. As sea levels rise, it is becoming more exposed and was identified as the most vulnerable zone in the Bay area to short-term sea level rise (SLR). According to FEMA, it is more vulnerable than 99% of census tracts in the nation. It is also the most segregated Latino neighborhood in the Bay area, and residents in one tract are more housing burdened than in 99% of other tracts in California. This project will work with disproportionately vulnerable residents to co -create solutions to build a safer, more resilient community. This project proposes to build on an exciting partnership between the City of San Rafael, the County, the Canal Alliance, the Multicultural Center of Morin, and UC Berkeley. The partners would work collaboratively and with community members to improve the understanding of climate hazards using the most current science and prioritize adaptation measures that will address the community's short-term needs and minimize risks to housing and safety. This effort would lay a strong foundation for long-term resilience by building climate capacity at community -based organizations and directly connecting Canal students with STEM educational opportunities. Community Need & Adaptive Capacity The Canal neighborhood in San Rafael is a frontline community facing disproportionate impacts of flooding due to climate change. The Canal is the most densely populated area in the County, and more than two-thirds of all occupied housing units meet the Census definition of "overcrowded." The neighborhood is home to more than 12,000 people, who are predominantly cost -burdened renters. Within one census tract, 91% of housing units are renter -occupied. Despite relatively high employment rates, nearly one-third of Canal residents live below the federal poverty line. More than half of residents over 25 do not have a high school diploma. Median per capita income is about one -quarter the citywide average and is a designated low-income community according to the California Climate Investments Priority Populations 2022 CES 4.0. The Canal is the most segregated Latino neighborhood in the Bay Area and segregation has worsened over the past decade. In the Canal, more than 90% of residents are of Hispanic/Latino origin and are underrepresented in local and regional government. Page 23 Exhibit G, Grant Application Office of Planning and Research - Adaptation Planning Grant Program - Round 1 Grant Number: OPRXXXXX, [GRANTEE] This proposal was developed in partnership with two community -based organizations, Canal Alliance and the Multicultural Center of Morin. They will continue to guide the adaptation planning to ensure it is serving community priorities. Much of San Rafael is already below today's high tides. As a result, the entire Canal area would be below sea levels anticipated by just 2040. Without action, one-third of the city's population and two-thirds of its economic base would be permanently inundated by the end of the century. The Canal is built upon partially reclaimed land, which is subsiding. While much of the land is lower than the Bay it is currently insulated from regular tidal flooding due to a discontinuous system of uncertified levees, pump stations, private lawns, driveways, and seawalls. However, this infrastructure will not provide meaningful protection in the face of a storm nor climate change. A report from the Army Corps in 1990 concluded that, "existing flood control facilities were constructed in a piecemeal manner over a period of decades... the overall system provides only a low level of protection which is inadequate for a densely urbanized area. This same report identified the risk of possible levee failure due to overtopping. Today, water levels are higher, and failure could have potentially catastrophic impacts due to the high population density, the number of ground -level apartments, and limited evacuation routes. These risks are compounded by high groundwater, rainfall intensification, and risks of tsunamis and seismic impacts due to the construction on fill and presence of soft -story structures. While the climate impacts are extensive, residents face even more urgent issues due to escalating housing costs, overcrowding, and the real threat of displacement from one of the only affordable areas in the region. Climate change is significantly increasing the risk of displacement within this generation. Many residents would not have the resources to recover after a disaster. While previous studies identified the vulnerability, different information is needed to bridge the gap between knowledge of the risks and making tangible investments to protect housing and infrastructure. For example, studies have identified risks to the levees, fire stations, and healthcare facilities, but more detail is needed to understand what the critical elevations and exposed components are for those facilities. This project would complete a more detailed vulnerability assessment focused on short-term life -safety risks and cascading impacts from infrastructure failures. This will include gathering fundamental physical data on surface and ground water levels, salinity, hydrologic connectivity, levee conditions, and geophysical conditions to better characterize climate hazards, timing, and impacts. This will include a detailed assessment of the exposure, sensitivity, and potential impact of flooding on critical infrastructure in the exposed area. This analysis would utilize the most current guidance on SLR that incorporates the best -available science from the IPCC's 6th assessment. This phase will engage the agencies responsible for critical infrastructure, including below -ground assets. A portion of this data gathering will be done through a collaborative community science effort to build capacity and connect Canal students with educational opportunities in STEM fields. Canal Alliance will facilitate participation from students in their University Prep (UP!) program. This will create an opportunity for younger students to work with Berkeley students and faculty. There will be an opportunity for one Canal student Page 24 Exhibit G, Grant Application Office of Planning and Research - Adaptation Planning Grant Program - Round 1 Grant Number: OPRXXXXX, [GRANTEE] to have a year -long paid fellowship. in parallel, the Multicultural Center of Marin would lead community engagement and participatory asset mapping, which will be incorporated into the vulnerability assessment. Adaptation actions would then be prioritized based on those results and community input. This effort would also advance adaptation policies recently integrated into the City's General Plan. Co -Benefits This collaborative team is focused on advancing social equity and resilience in a community at high risk of displacement due to short-term housing insecurity and climate change. This project would build civic engagement to transform the local decision -making dynamic by educating, empowering, and activating residents to drive placemaking and planning projects that build climate resilience. To foster long-term community resilience this project is also centered on youth engagement. The Canal Alliance's University Prep (UP!) program supports Latino students from immigrant families to prepare for and complete college and obtain career -path employment that pays livable and equitable wages. This project will create educational opportunities for first -generation students and accelerate the success of immigrants. This project will plant the seeds for long-term community resilience by connecting these students and a year -long fellow with UC Berkeley students and faculty as well as with local government officials. There are also significant environmental co -benefits for this project. Without action many critical facilities, including wastewater pump stations, are at risk of damage or failure under current conditions. As precipitation events intensify and sea levels rise the risk of failure of these facilities is increasing. Infrastructure failure could lead to public health and water quality impacts. This project seeks to proactively identify those risks. Additionally, the city has committed in its General Plan 2040 to "prioritize natural and green infrastructure solutions" as part of its adaptation planning. Community Partnership This project proposes to model a deeply collaborative, community -led climate adaptation planning process that inverts traditional planning processes and centers the community in decision -making. If funded, this project would be completed by a cooperative project team with the following partners. The City of San Rafael will oversee the grant administration and is responsible for implementation. The Canal Alliance works with low-income Latino residents and community activists on political issues and non- political actions that address public concerns, improve democracy, and promote quality of life in the Canal neighborhood. The Canal Alliance creates civic spaces and leadership development opportunities to ensure that low-income residents have a voice in decisions that affect them and the opportunity to fully participate in democracy at all levels. The Canal Alliance would facilitate student participation in the project, supervise a year -long student fellowship, and integrate community input into project policy recommendations. The Multicultural Center of Marin provides culturally appropriate resources and opportunities in a safe environment to empower and inspire diverse communities to build an inclusive and equitable county they want to live in. Here the Multicultural Center would lead community engagement and participatory asset mapping, which will be incorporated into the vulnerability assessment. The University of California Berkeley, including Professor Dr. Mark Stacey, the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department Chair, and Dr. Kristina Hill, the Program Director of the Institute for Urban and Regional Development and Associate Professor of Landscape Architecture & Environmental Planning and Urban Design, are experts in SLR adaptation and will advise on the technical analysis and community science efforts and supervise students. Professors Hill and Stacey have been Page 25 Exhibit G, Grant Application Office of Planning and Research - Adaptation Planning Grant Program - Round 1 Grant Number: OPRXXXXX, [GRANTEE] working for years at the forefront of coastal climate adaptation research. The Marin County Department of Public Works leads the BoyWAVE program,, which coordinates all bayside cities and towns to help communities understand and prepare for sea level rise. The County's multi jurisdictional coordination is critical, as sea level rise crosses political boundaries and impacts shared resources, utilities, and infrastructure. This partnership is well positioned as the City, County, Canal Alliance, and Multicultural Center, are currently collaborating on a climate project. These partners already have both formal and informal working relationships in place that would allow this project to hit the ground running. The partners have collaborated on several past projects, and staff bring years of professional experience on these issues to bear. Another strength of this collaboration is the diversity of knowledge that each partner brings to the table, including expertise in physical sciences, policy, housing, equitable and culturally relevant community engagement, community resiliency, data, and mapping. Most importantly, the community - based organizations, the Canal Alliance and the Multicultural Center of Morin, bring decades of experience and relationships with this frontline community. This funding would help build professional climate adaptation capacity at these two organizations. Building this capacity will help traditionally under-resourced communities shape adaptation decisions and investments. Workplan and Budget The proposed budget is focused on four primary capacity -building strategies. These concurrently deepen understanding of physical and community infrastructure to identify opportunities to strengthen community resilience. The budget is directed toward (1) improving the fundamental science that is the basis of adaptation decision -making, (2) analyzing the vulnerability of critical infrastructure and community assets in partnership with residents, (3) evaluating and prioritizing adaptation actions to bolster public health and safety, and (4) developing an actionable implementation plan. To support this, a technical subcontractor will be used throughout, but primarily for tasks 1, 2, and 3 to gather better information on surface water, groundwater, geotechnical data, critical elevations and thresholds for infrastructure, and to analyze vulnerabilities and protective measures. This cost includes consultant staff, monitoring equipment, and coordination with partners. Across all activities, funding is explicitly structured to build long-term community capacity in the Canal at the professional level, among students, and residents. All technical analysis is paired with community participation. Resources are allocated to peer -to -peer learning, engagement, language access, partnership development, and facilitating participation in meetings and decision -making processes. To maximize community benefit, the requested funds would be directed toward partner staff time. Cost estimates for staff time are based on actual salaries or currently negotiated rates and include benefits and a COL adjustment. To facilitate learning and capacity building, a travel budget is included to facilitate three Canal students' attendance at one relevant convening, such as the National Adaptation Forum or equivalent.

Page 30 Exhibit H, APGP Communications Kit Office of Planning and Research - Adaptation Planning Grant Program - Round 1 Grant Number: OPRXXXXX, [GRANTEE] Spread the Word Here are a few effective ways to raise awareness around your important work. In every case, we recommend a clear, concise writing style that avoids technical terms and is easy for most readers to access. Be sure all of your communications comply with the Publicity Requirements and Guidelines in this kit. Create a Website One of the best ways to share the latest information about the progress of your APGP project is to compile everything the public needs to know into well -organized website. Your website should be simple and inviting, with sections explaining who you are, what the APGP program is, and why the project is important. Keeping the website updated with your latest accomplishments and steps taken to achieve your goals will keep members of your community enthusiastic and engaged. You can choose from dozens of inexpensive website templates, such as Wix, Square Space, and WordPress. Press Releases & Media Advisories If you're interested in getting mentioned by your local news outlets (newspapers, web - based news, radio, television), you've got to alert reporters, editors, hosts, news desks, and producers in your local media market. Here are a couple ways to get their attention (in both cases, include a contact name, title, phone number, and email at the top): Press release This is a narrative piece that tells the reader a story. Your best bet is to write it in the style of a story you'd read in the newspaper. Start with the most important part so that the reader knows immediately what you want to tell them about. From there, add details to flesh out the story (the amount of the grant, the number of supporting community groups, total emissions reductions, etc.), along with quotes from people who are engaged with your project -for example, representatives from partner organizations, residents who engaged in project design, and OPR's Executive Director. Some media outlets might publish your press release as is! Others will follow up with questions or to interview someone. Media advisory This is a short piece you send to reporters, editors, hosts, news desks, and producers when you want to invite them to attend and cover an event, such as a groundbreaking, ribbon -cutting, dedication, etc. Make sure you answer the most important questions (who/what/when/where/why/how) and emphasize what makes your story worthy of media attention —as well as what photo opportunities will be available at the event. Social Media Numerous social media platforms support digital storytelling and promotion. Use your existing platforms to talk about your APGP project. We also encourage you to follow OPR on Twitter and Linkedln so we can watch for and share your updates about your APGP project. Please see our social media section of this kit for more details. Page 31 Exhibit H, APGP Communications Kit Office of Planning and Research - Adaptation Planning Grant Program - Round 1 Grant Number: OPRXXXXX, [GRANTEE] Blog Post If you or any of your partners currently has an active blog, we encourage you to write a post highlighting the progress or impact of your APGP project. For example, ask a project partner to write a guest blog or sit with you for a Q&A to highlight some of the specific benefits of their programs, who is receiving those benefits, and how the community has been involved. After you've posted your blog, you can share it on your social media platforms! Newsletter If you or any of your APGP partners have a newsletter or listserv, please share your award announcement and other important milestones through that platform. Encourage community leaders and/or elected officials who work with you frequently to announce APGP milestones through their newsletters or listservs as well. Please contact us at OPR so we can share your important APGP milestones through our newsletter as well! Op -Ed or Letter to the Editor Consider writing an op-ed or letter to the editor of your local newspaper to raise awareness of your new APGP award and the benefits it will bring to your community. A good approach is to acknowledge the various stakeholders involved in the planning process, name the specific benefits this project will bring to members of your community, and emphasize the place -based, community -driven approach to this project using APGP's model. An op-ed is typically around 600 words (it depends on the outlet) and you submit it to the Op -Ed Editor; it is best to reach out to this editor with an outline for your piece and ask if they're interested in running a developed piece from you. A letter -to -the -editor is short - usually under 200 words - and you just submit it directly to the letters section of the outlet. Events Events with community members, leaders, and elected officials can be a draw for the press, as well as for local residents, and are a great way to build excitement about your APGP project. Host Community Events Organizing a fun kick-off meeting and other community events for stakeholders and the general public is a great way to raise awareness about your APGP award and get more people involved in the planning process. These kinds of events can help make sure everyone is on the same page and united in your mission, as well as enthusiastic about the tangible benefits your project will create. Remember The OPR team is here to help! We love to work with awardees to brainstorm communication strategies. We can provide quotes from OPR leadership for your press releases and make leadership available for media interviews. We can coach you on how to pitch media, help you identify reporters, and help secure participation by State officials in your event.

Page 32 Exhibit H, APGP Communications Kit Office of Planning and Research - Adaptation Planning Grant Program - Round 1 Grant Number: OPRXXXXX, [GRANTEE] Social Media Social media offers an array of powerful, free platforms that enable you to communicate about your APGP project to potentially large audiences. • Follow us: The California Office of Planning & Research (@Cal_OPR) posts frequently on Twitter about the State's efforts to improve our environment and communities. OPR is also active on Linkedln. We encourage you and your APGP partners to follow our accounts to stay up to date on the latest news on our policies and programs. If we tweet about the APGP, or about anything else relevant or interesting to you, please 'like' and retweet us —sometimes it can even save you the trouble of crafting your own tweet. • Tag us: We love seeing grantees' progress from vision to reality. Please post updates and photos of project events or outcomes on social media, and make sure to tag us so that we can like, comment, and retweet to share your hard work with all of California. • Tag Your Partners: Remember to include co -applicants and other key stakeholders and champions in social media posts about your APGP award. Tagging partners gives them the recognition they deserve while increasing the audience for your post. • Use Hashtags: Hashtags can be a very effective way to increase a post's visibility and response rate. It is best to use a few relevant hashtags, like #climateadaptation #climateresilience #CAresilience and #OPR. • Take Pictures: A social post with a great image attached is bound to get more traction than one without an image. Throughout every stage of the APGP process, be sure to encourage your team to bring their phones or even a nice camera and take a picture of their colleagues or work environment. Having a photobank of pictures can work wonders on your social media accounts, especially because you'll have the freedom to choose the highest quality or most interesting photos. Please see the Photo Tips section of this kit for more information. • Shorten the Message: Given the character limit for tweets, you will need to pick and choose what information to include. Incorporate hashtags and tagging partners into your sentences, (see the sample posts below). Use commonly known abbreviations and conjunctions. • Amplify the Voices of Community Members: Reach out to partners and community members for their videos, quotes, and pictures that share how your APGP project will affect their lives. These stories can increase your social media audience's enthusiasm for your project. Retweeting posts that residents and stakeholders create is another way to demonstrate APGP's impact. • Post Often: Interact with your audience as much as possible on all platforms. It is ideal to post between a few times a week and once or twice a day on social media. Brainstorm with your staff to come up with creative ways to keep the public informed and interested in your work. Then create a schedule and remain consistent. • More Social Media Tips: o Encourage audience engagement by posting questions. o Use URL shortening tools from sites like bitly.com and tinyurl.com. Page 33 Exhibit H, APGP Communications Kit Office of Planning and Research - Adaptation Planning Grant Program - Round I Grant Number: OPRXXXXX, [GRANTEE] o Don't be afraid to use emojis. o Encourage your colleagues and APGP partners to participate in social media conversations. o Be visual! Use infographics instead of text when possible. o Observe copyright laws. • Sample Posts tl Strategic Growth Council Retweeted Connie Leywa ®SenatorLeyva • Mar 23 After over a year of working closely with community stakeholders, residents & local leaders, I look forward to the 4Ci1yofOntario benefiting from the S35 million #TCC award that will help to #TransformOntario and Improve our region's air quality, #communityengagement WattsRlsing ®WattsRising - Feb 20 DYK Over 21 % of #Watts residents ages 16+ are not in the labor force compared with CA?

Page 34 Exhibit H, APGP Communications Kit Office of Planning and Research -Adaptation Planning Grant Program - Round 1 Grant Number: OPRXXXXX, [GRANTEE] • Quality: Use the highest quality camera you can access. Good news: many modern smart phones are usually sufficient, as long as your subject is in focus, well -lit, and the phone is turned sideways (landscape orientation —use this orientation for videos, too!). Photos on social media don't have to be as high quality as photos on your website or newsletter. • Everyone's a Photographer: Encourage your staff and partners to take photos whenever they have the chance, and to send them all to your organization's communications team. Designating someone who owns a nice camera to take photographs during events is always a good practice. • Don't Have a Great Photo?: Services like Flickr, Pixabay, and Upsplash offer countless high -quality photos that you can download and use for free. • Content: When possible, photos should be bright and colorful, without being too 'noisy,' blurry, or filtered. Candid photos of people working or interacting tend to be more unique and eye-catching than people smiling at the camera. Highlight interesting aspects of your project so your photo stands out. • Remember: The picture is what draws people in to read the caption and learn about your work. Don't underestimate its importance! STAY IN TOUCH!

OPRXXXXX, [GRANTEE] Attachment 2: Work Plan Project Name: San Rafael Climate Adaptation Planning Collaborative The City of San Rafael, the Canal Alliance, the Multicultural Center of Marin, UC Berkeley and Marin County will work together to address climate change impacts threatening the densely populated, low-lying Canal District. The project will include a rigorous vulnerability assessment, gathering fundamental physical data, community science, and participatory community asset mapping. This will result in a prioritization of adaptation actions to address the risks most important to the community.

Task 2: Vulnerability assessment including community asset mapping This task would gather essential information on the exposure, sensitivity, and consequence of a flooding - induced failure of critical facilities and infrastructure. This would focus on assets with the most significant risks to life and safety, such as levees, evacuation routes, water infrastructure, the community center, health facifities, emergency response facilities, underground infrastructure, and others. This work includes updating GIS data, modeling and mapping, interviews with asset owners/managers, and on -the -ground site assessments to identify critical thresholds and the potential consequences of cascading infrastructure failures. As one example, the wastewater lift station that conveys the majority of wastewater for east San Rafael is located right on the bank of the canal. Based on its ground elevation, flood waters would be expected to be several feet However, there are substantial knowledge gaps, including the critical threshold elevations, consequences of failure, and adaptive capacity. This analytical phase would address these gaps and would explore the implications of compounding hazards (i.e., sea level rise, increasing groundwater levels, subsidence, and more intense rain events, which increase the potential for saltwater intrusion, corrosion, liquefaction, and other impacts to infrastructure). This phase will focus on working Subtask A: Vulnerability across government levels to identify the most critical near - assessment of critical tens climate risks to this already disproportionately community facilities vulnerable community.
