Sonoma Water Seeks $15,900 Community Foundation Grant for Student Environmental Education

SONOMA COUNTY, Calif. — October 27, 2026. Sonoma County Water Agency asks its governing board to authorize a $15,900 grant agreement with Community Foundation Sonoma County to support environmental education for students.

What the county documents say

The proposal appears on the October 27 agenda as item 2026-1044 and includes authorizing the agency general manager to execute, modify or terminate the agreement with required legal approval. The program is focused on environmental learning rather than a new drinking-water plant or sewer construction.

What residents should know

The legislative record does not establish an already released schedule of student field trips, class reservations or the number of participating schools. Families and teachers should seek current program details from Sonoma Water and the foundation.

Decision status: The October 27 legislative record lists this item for consideration but its meeting minutes were not finalized when checked. This report does not assert final board approval or completed spending.

Primary source: Sonoma County official Legistar agenda item and supporting staff report.
