Top issues during term (11)(General)
Housing as Economic Infrastructure
It's all about getting the city's money flowing again and making sure businesses thrive.
Battery energy storage regulation
No direct cost to the city now, though staff note future CEQA review will apply to any specific project.
city manager appointment
This appointment could mean shifts in how city funds are allocated, so keep an eye on the budget!
community center expansion
No major financial impacts are immediately apparent from this expansion proposal.
energy storage facilities
It's unclear if these batteries will save you money on your electric bill or cost you more, but they're definitely a big investment for the city.
homeless encampment cleanup
That's a lot of taxpayer cash gone to clean up one spot!
youth engagement program
While it costs a bit to run, it's an investment in our future leaders!
utility rate increase
Your wallet's going to feel this one, with bills going up by a fifth.
drone security partnership
Good news – this is all covered by a state grant, so your tax dollars aren't footing the bill for this drone program.
solar permitting
Homeowners and businesses can save money faster by getting solar projects approved and installed quicker, cutting down on energy bills sooner.
battery storage plant ordinance
These plants could bring in some cash for the city, but folks are worried about the cost of any potential accidents.
