'- 5iJ;; Commissioner Knecht expressed his concern that the County contribute equally with regard to funding. Mr. Villasenor conveyed that the City of Redwood City contributed approximately $140,000 and the County contributed $50,000; the majority of the funding for this fiscal year was budgeted for capital improvements. Integrating of funding was discussed briefly and Mr. Weeks indicated that this was one problem which would hopefully be dealt with in the Community Development Program. Chairperson Weintraub remarked that there was some difficulty in getting the recreation program going in the schools in the target area--that the program was not well attended--and she was interested in knowing if there was some way to boost attendance. Mr. Paulson stated that comparatively speaking there was extensive participation in the program. Mr. Weeks stated that the Department was currently serving four schools in the County area as a part of the City-School Agreement. If the contract is not renewed due to shortage of School funds, the City would probably discontinue servicing those sc hools .

She further stated that several Commissioners would be contacting him in the near future with their ideas and suggestions.
