How it got here

Governor Newsom proposed a $2.3 billion supply chain resilience budget package, including $1.2 billion for port and freight infrastructure improvements.
The Port submitted a grant application for $36.5 million to the California State Transportation Agency (CalSTA) for improvements to the Maritime Eco-Industrial Complex.
CalSTA announced a $21,582,000 award to the Port for specific projects including the Pier 80 fendering project and Amador Street improvements.
The Port Commission authorized the Executive Director to seek Board of Supervisors' approval to accept and expend the grant funds through Resolution No. 24-13.
