The Committee meets twice each calendar year in downtown Sacramento and meetings are open to the public.
The Committee consists of 12 members, including: Three members of the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors Two representatives of the City of Sacramento One representative of the City of Rancho Cordova Representatives from the Natural Resources Agency, the Department of Finance, and the State Lands Commission Three members from the public at large who have demonstrated knowledge of and expertise in the American River Parkway and the American River Parkway Plan Earth Day and Spring Events in the American River Parkway April 2, 2026 Advisory Committee Meeting WCB's 2025 Year In Review and Prop 4 Update Lower American River Conservancy Program Guidelines (PDF) 2008 American River Parkway Plan (PDF) 2017 Parkway Boundary and Ownership Map (PDF) Sacramento County Regional Parks Natural Resources Management Plan Page CDFW Special Status Species of the American River Parkway Presentation (PDF) Advisory Committee Charter (PDF) Morgan Kilgour (Natural Resources Agency) Ninette Lee (State Lands Commission) Stephen Benson (Department of Finance) Sacramento County Board of Supervisors Patrick Hume, Vice Chairman, District 5 Roger Dickinson, City Council, District 2 Phil Pluckebaum, City Council, District 4 David Sander, City Council, District 1 Cassie Gilson (Governor appointee) Stephen Green (Senate appointee) Corey Brown, Chairman (Assembly appointee) Meeting Minutes and Recordings LARCPAC Recording April 2026 (Video) LARCPAC Recording October 2025 (Video) LARCPAC Recording April 2025 (Video) LARCPAC Recording October 2024 (Video) LARCPAC Recording April 2024 (Video) LARCPAC Recording October 2023 (Video) LARCPAC Recording April 2023 (Video) LARCPAC Recording September 2022 (Video) LARCPAC Recording March 2022 (Video) LARCPAC Recording September 2021 (Video) LARCPAC Minutes February 2021 (PDF) LARCPAC Virtual Parkway Tour December 2020 (Video) LARCPAC Recording October 2020 (Video) LARCPAC Minutes May 2020 (PDF) LARCPAC Minutes October 2019 (PDF) LARCPAC Minutes May 2019 (PDF) LARCPAC Minutes February 2019 (PDF) LARCPAC Minutes November 2018 (PDF) LARCPAC Minutes July 2018 (PDF) LARCPAC Minutes March 2018 (PDF) LARCPAC Minutes October 2017 (PDF) LARCPAC Minutes August 2017 (PDF) From 2018 to February 2026, the Program has invested approximately $11 million towards 17 distinct projects.
For additional information, refer to the List of Awarded Grants (PDF) . Figure 1. Amount invested in each Program goal (habitat, public access, education/interpretation, and water quality) and project type (implementation, planning, and acquisition).
The amount allocated to each goal is based on the project's primary goal. Some projects may have a secondary goal (e.g., to improve water quality) but that is not reflected here. The Program accepts proposal applications on a continuous basis.
Information about applying for grants can be found on the WCB Grant Opportunities page. All Full Applications must be reviewed and recommended for funding by the Program's Committee before staff can bring the proposal to the voting members of WCB for final funding consideration.
Since the Committee only meets twice per year, typically in April and October, the timing for submitting a Pre- or Full Application must be carefully considered when applying for grant funds. The board of WCB meets every quarter typically in February, May, August, and November.
If invited to submit a Full Application, it must be received in January to be presented at the April Committee meeting or received by July to be presented at the October Committee meeting. After the Committee recommends a proposal for funding, the proposal can be presented at the next quarterly WCB meeting. Cara.
