The City of Richmond's FY 2026-27 budget presentation says the Port of Richmond's FY 2025 PIDP DRIVE grant was awarded at about $11.2 million for dock restoration and infrastructure improvements.

Recent official city budget material confirms the Port of Richmond received roughly $11.2 million for upgrades, supporting the Richmond half of the funding claim.

The Port of Hueneme said it secured an $11.25 million federal grant to expand capacity and modernize infrastructure, including wharf and berth upgrades.

The port's own announcement confirms the Hueneme award at $11.25 million, which combined with Richmond clears the more-than-$22 million threshold.

Assessments

partial same_term

The underlying outcome appears to have occurred during Garamendi's time in federal office: the Port of Richmond received about $11.2 million and the Port of Hueneme received $11.25 million, totaling roughly $22.45 million for infrastructure upgrades and exceeding the promised $22 million threshold. However, the supplied evidence establishes that the ports received the grants, not that Garamendi personally secured or materially advanced both awards. Because the funding result happened in the same term but candidate-specific credit is not firmly demonstrated, partial credit is the better fit than full delivery.

The evidence shows both target ports received federal PIDP grants during Garamendi's current term: about $11.2 million for Richmond and $11.25 million for Hueneme, totaling roughly $22.45 million. That exceeds the promised threshold of more than $22 million, so the claim is fulfilled in the same term.
