Development News from the latest meeting
City Council - 7/22/2026
Published: Jul 22, 2026
Updates on Roadway Safety and Curb Address Painting Projects
The Public Works Department Maintenance Division reported on two projects: the AB 413 daylighting law compliance and the citywide curb address painting project. The 78 locations requiring daylighting were painted by city staff and are ready for citations if traffic laws are not followed. The curb address painting project began its pre-construction meeting last week, with construction starting next week and completion anticipated by mid-September. This service is free for all residents, and the contractor will follow postal service standards for refreshing curb addresses.
Community Invited to 'Ice Cream with the Deputy' and National Night Out
The Public Safety Department and Sheriff's Department announced two upcoming community events: 'Ice Cream with the Deputy' on Wednesday, July 29th, from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at La Makana Ice Cream Parlor, and National Night Out on Tuesday, August 4th, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Public Safety Center. The public is invited to attend these events to engage with deputies and participate in community-building activities.
City Hall Restroom Renovation Project Completed Under Budget
The city council accepted construction improvements for the city hall restroom renovation project by Bridge Rock Construction Inc. The project, awarded on May 13, 2026, for $247,000 (total construction and design cost), involved updating plumbing, fixtures, flooring, lighting, and ensuring ADA compliance. Construction began in June 2026 and was completed in early July 2026, resulting in $33,000 in savings. The council authorized the city clerk to file a notice of completion and release the retention payment to the contractor.
City Council to Consider Business License Tax Measure for November Ballot
The city council considered adopting a resolution to place a business license tax measure on the November 3rd, 2026 general municipal election ballot. The proposed measure aims to update and simplify the city's business license tax structure, which has been in place since 1993. The new structure includes a flat rate of $50 up to $30,000 of gross receipts, and $0.95 per thousand over $30,000, with a flat rate for contractors. This is projected to generate approximately $563,000 annually for the general fund to support city services. The measure requires a two-thirds vote of the city council and a simple majority of voters to pass. The city plans community outreach to educate businesses and voters, and has included language allowing the council to lower rates if necessary without requiring a new ballot measure.
Council Members Share Leadership and Innovation Insights from CIA Conference
Council members shared insights from the CIA conference. One council member highlighted innovative approaches from larger cities, such as Santa Monica's decision to own and operate its ambulance service to address overwhelmed first responder capacity. Another council member spoke about a guest speaker who shared experiences from the 'Black Hawk Down' incident, emphasizing leadership, crisis management, and the need to pivot. A third council member echoed the insights on leadership through crisis and personal growth gained from the conference speaker.
