Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Vacaville public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Youth Baseball and Softball Capacity Crunch
The council approved exclusive negotiating rights with a local group to study developing city-owned Nut Tree Park land near Browns Valley Parkway and Allison Drive. Neighbors and Solano County raised concerns about airport safety zones, traffic, and county involvement; any actual project would still require full entitlements and public hearings.
de Colores Park discussion
With the city deficit spending and cutting department budgets again, Fremouw pushed to reopen the de Colores Park decision. The project has about $16 million committed from Measure M, state grants, and bond/CDBG funds, with 90% of design done — but pulling back could risk losing grants. Council narrowly voted just to schedule a discussion.
