I posted last week about Sup. Janet Nguyen's Fund 130 allocations, so in the interest of fair play I'm starting a regular feature called "Fund 130 Watch."

Each supervisor gets (I think) $1 million Fund 130 District Communities and Priorities Projects appropriation -- a little pot o' pork (or community assistance, depending on how one wants too look at it) they can ladle out in their district. While the allocations have to be approved by the entire Board of Supervisors, generally speaking they don't monkey with each others allocations because what goes around comes around.

The 2nd District (Sup. John Moorlach) has a Fund 130 item on Tuesday's agenda consistting of $21,608 for "capital projects at Rossmoor Park":

$6,980 for purchase and replacement of windscreens at the four tennis courts

$9870 for purchase and installation of two basketball standards [posts supporting baskets]

$3,768 for purchase and installation of four eight-foot picnic tables

$990 for repair of four tennis court surfaces

Once in a while we'll see a questionable item like Sup. Nguyen's tentative proposal to give the Garden grove Downtown Business Association  $100,000 to build a decorative arch over the street entrance to "old town" Garden Grove. Generally speaking, though, the above items are the glamorous meat-and-bones of Fund 130 allocations -- but they're interesting to review in an inside-governmental-baseball kind of way.
