Any qualifying entity receiving advance payment will be required to demonstrate the ability to meet statutory requirements regulating the provision of advance payment. iii. Eligible Costs
Grantee should refer to the TCC Guidelines, including Appendix B, for eligible cost requirements. To the extent that the provisions of this Section may conflict with the TCC Guidelines, this Section takes precedent.
a. Indirect costs are costs of doing business that are of a general nature and not directly tied to the grant, but necessary for the general operation of the organization.

These costs may account for no more than 12% of the awarded TCC funds minus any funds for equipment purchases with a per unit cost of $5,000.00 or more. The 12% maximum of indirect cost applies to Grantee and all Partners or subcontractors.

Reimbursement requests for indirect/overhead costs must be proportionate to the direct costs billed in an invoice.
b. Direct costs will be reimbursable with TCC funds. Direct costs are defined as costs directly tied to the implementation of the Grant Agreement. In addition, insurance premiums are only an eligible cost to the extent that the cost of coverage increased because of the award or Project requirements. Grantees must adhere to the following requirements:
(i) Pre-development costs may account for up to ten percent (10%) of related capital improvement costs for each Project and should not exceed five percent (5%) of total awarded TCC Funds. These activities and costs should occur within the first year of the grant term to meet readiness requirements.

Construction management tied to project implementation is a direct project cost and will not be subject to the cap on "pre-development" costs. (ii) Water and wastewater connections may account for up to ten percent (10%) of the total TCC award for Grantees that need to meet program policy requirements for basic infrastructure access.
(iii) The eligible use of heavy-duty trucks and equipment shall be reimbursed at the then-current rate set by the California Department of Transportation “Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rate” guide.
c. Travel costs directly related to the performance of this Grant Agreement will be subject to the State of California travel reimbursement rates, in effect, during the term of this Grant Agreement.
(i) SGC will reimburse for actual expenditures, based on equivalent civil service classifications, up to the maximum state allowable rates in effect at the time of travel. The state rates are available for review at:

(v) Grantee shall ensure that any person traveling pursuant to this Grant Agreement shall indemnify and hold harmless the SGC and State of California for any liabilities resulting from such travel.
d. Project-specific allowable costs are costs that are only allowed under certain Strategies. These direct costs are allowed for project implementation, and therefore may not be subject to the indirect cost restrictions. These costs may still be subject to additional restrictions per Appendix B of the TCC Guidelines and will not be reimbursed if incurred for other Projects. See Exhibit C, Part 2 Project-Specific Terms and Conditions for project and strategy specific allowable costs. iv. Ineligible Costs
a. For ineligible direct implementation costs, refer to Appendix B and C of the Guidelines, by project or plan strategy.
b. Indirect costs in excess of 12% of the awarded TCC funds. c. Climate resilience and adaptation must be integrated into the Projects, Transformative Elements, and Vision.

Project Description: The E-Bike Lending Library (Lending Library) will be a new structure in Unity Park focused on supporting community members in integrating e-bikes into their lives, which supports the community's effort to improve Richmond's growing zero-carbon-based transportation infrastructure. This will include development of a new long-term E- bike share program, where community members can check out bikes, take free classes, and get help and support with every aspect of having an e-bike as a flexible, accessible, and useful mode of transportation. The Lending Library will create a VTM “Volunteer, Training, Maintenance” road to ownership program which will allow community members to receive an e-bike upon completion of the VTM program.

Operations & Maintenance Plan: Rich City Rides will provide additional details to SGC on how the E-Bike Lending Library’s facilities operations and maintenance will be funded during and after the grant period. This Operation and Maintenance Plan will be developed between Rich City Rides and the City of Richmond’s Parks and Recreation Division to be completed in the 11th month of the grant period. Rich City Rides will apply for applicable grants to support the continuation of the bike share programs.

Reimbursement Conditions: Grantee will not be reimbursed for Task 2 (construction & implementation) until all readiness deliverables within Task 1 are received, approved and notified through an updated readiness memo provided by the TCC Grant Manager.

Project # and Name: 4 - Resilient Homes for Healthy Communities Strategy: Solar Installation and Energy Efficiency Lead Entity: GRID Alternatives Bay Area
Project Description: The Resilient Homes for Healthy Communities project will install 875 kilowatts (KW) of solar photovoltaic systems on approximately 250 single-family homes in the TCC Project Area. In addition, GRID will coordinate energy efficiency measures with MCE to amplify impact and savings to at least 216 solar install clients as well as additional assessed clients. GRID Alternatives will coordinate outreach efforts through the TCC Community Engagement Plan and workforce training efforts through the TCC Workforce Development Plan.

Operations & Maintenance Plan: GRID will issue a labor warranty on the single-family solar installation and make available copies of the manufacturer’s warranties for the inverter(s) and solar panels. GRID informs homeowners that they are not responsible for repairs or damage to the roof related to the installation of the systems. After the warranty expires, homeowners are responsible for any modifications and/or reinstallations. The warranty is 10 years on single-family projects. GRID provides homeowners with a Solar Electric System User Guide, instructions on how to care for their system, answers to common maintenance and repairs questions, and instructions on how to make a service call. Solar is very low maintenance and typically there is little that homeowners need to do to care for their system.

Reimbursement Conditions: Grantee will not be reimbursed for Task 2 (implementation) until all readiness deliverables within Task 1 are received, approved, and notified through an updated readiness memo provided by the TCC Grant Manager.

Project # and Name: 5 - Basins of Relations Strategy: Water Efficiency Lead Entity: Urban Tilth
Project Description: The Basins of Relations (BoR) Watersheds training program expansion will offer grey water and laundry to landscape systems design and installation by outreaching to 300 homes and enrolling 120 homes while offering 3 training programs to local young people interested in pursuing green careers. It will also mobilize these skills by employing these young people and our Watersheds team to design and install grey water and laundry to landscape systems for FREE for low-income homeowners in our project area.

Operations & Maintenance Plan: During the grant term, Urban Tilth will offer limited warranty and repairs on all systems installed at project sites. The extent of warranty and maintenance will be determined as a part of project development during the first year of the project. Urban Tilth’s Watersheds team will be responsible for operations and maintenance during the grant term, as funded by TCC.

Urban Tilth will seek additional funds for this project to continue the program and cover ongoing operations and maintenance.

Maintenance responsibilities will transfer fully to the property owner after 3 years unless funding is secured for Urban Tilth’s Watershed team to continue to offer maintenance services. Certain equipment used in this project will have a 5–10-year life cycle and will need basic regular maintenance.

Project # and Name: 6 - Bosque del Barrio Strategy: Urban Greening and Green Infrastructure Lead Entity: Groundwork Richmond
Project Description: The Bosque del Barrio tree planting project includes intensive reforesting of the Project Area to increase CO2 capture, improve local air quality, and provide long-term shade for residents. The project directly implements the City of Richmond's Urban Greening Master Plan which identified 1,000 plantings sites and aims to increase urban tree canopy in Richmond. Bosque del Barrio will push this plan forward by planting 1,000 trees in the Iron Triangle, Coronado, and Santa Fe communities and assessing/removing dead or dying trees in the area. Bosque del Barrio aims to reforest the Project Area by 2027.

Operations & Maintenance Plan: The City of Richmond ("City") acknowledges and accepts responsibility for care of trees planted in the public right-of-way and on City property in the course of the implementation of the Bosque del Barrio project funded by the Transformative Climate Communities Round 4 grant award. The expected 1,000 trees will be planted by and initial establishment care will be provided by Groundwork Richmond, and an updated inventory of trees will be provided to the City. After the grant term and initial establishment care periods, the City of Richmond will use the inventory data to integrate the 1,000 trees into existing maintenance routines within the Public Works Department, with care specifically provided by the Parks and Landscaping Division. The trees will be cared for as part of regular operations of the Parks and Landscaping Division. The City may continue to partner with community organizations, including Groundwork Richmond, to organize citizen stewardship of trees and planting replacements when needed; however, the City accepts ultimate responsibility for watering, pruning, pest management, and protecting the trees.

Project # and Name: 8 - Orchard for ALL! Strategy: Health and Well-Being Lead Entity: Urban Tilth
Project Description: This project will establish a distributed fruit tree orchard throughout the TCC project area by expanding an existing annual FREE Fruit Tree Giveaway to 400 trees per year (2000 trees total) and training and employing youth ages 16-24 via the Gleaners Program to both care for the trees and harvest and redistribute hundreds, perhaps, thousands of pounds of fruit to families in need through Urban Tilth's FREE farm stands and FREE CSA programs.

Operations & Maintenance Plan: Urban Tilth will be responsible for the operations and maintenance of the Gleaner’s Program before and after the grant term. Urban Tilth's long-term plan is to support this effort through revenue generated from Veggie RX prescription income resulting from participating in Contra Costa County’s Medi-Cal covered veggie box prescriptions. Urban Tilth is working to complete authorization to become a prescription provider and establish relationships with area clinics so that many of our box recipients can have their vegetable prescriptions covered by their County health insurance. Urban Tilth will continue to pursue grant funding to make sure access to healthy whole foods is available to those most in need while this new ongoing source of health-related funding comes online. In order to launch this project, Urban Tilth will use TCC grant funds but anticipate shortly thereafter securing foundation funds and possibly a partnership with Richmond YouthWORKS to make this project more financially resilient beyond the TCC grant term.

Reimbursement Conditions: Grantee will not be reimbursed for Task 4 (implementation) until all readiness deliverables within Task 1 are received, approved and notified through an updated readiness memo provided by the TCC Grant Manager.
