Top issues during term (20)
Barnes Park Aquatic Center funding
About $2,907.60 raised so far toward pool restoration; total cost unknown.
Flock camera data privacy
The contract reportedly costs about $100,000 a year, money critics say could go to other safety programs.
Tree Planting and Urban Forest Management
Unknown — any planting program costs would depend on what the City Council approves.
Development pipeline and vacant Garvey Avenue lot
New projects mean future property and sales tax revenue; the vacant lot generates little in the meantime.
Police fleet replacement and zero-emission transition
Up to $1.65 million over five years.
Library Security Camera Upgrade
$102,886.53 from city funds.
Data Center Moratorium and Citywide Ban
The developer touts $5–7 million a year in revenue for the city; opponents call those projections fragile and warn of higher utility bills and litigation costs.
Garfield Avenue speeding and safety
Deerfield Mixed-Use Development Project approval path
Delays could undermine the feasibility of the housing project, per the applicant.
Measure NDC passage and Saturn Park future
The special election cost about $210,000 from the general fund.
Adaptive Traffic Signal Project Bid Rejection
Project delayed; will need rebidding, potentially at higher cost.
Los Palos Incident Local Emergency Termination
$50,000 appropriated for reimbursements; about $1,000 paid out so far.
Measure HOM Housing Overlay Ballot Measure
No direct cost to approve the ballot measure; future housing development could expand the tax base and housing supply.
City AI use policy
November 3 election and city food drive
El Niño local emergency declaration
No dollar amount set, but emergency contracting authority speeds up storm-preparation spending.
Condominium conversion at 141 Casuda Canyon Drive
No city fiscal impact was identified; the change affects who owns and lives in the four units.
New public GIS Hub for city information
No big price tag discussed — it's about making existing city data easier to access.
New school resource officer and wellness dog
An $11,394 grant covers the wellness dog; the officer position was already approved in this year's budget.
Goodviews project termination finalized
City spent about $16 million stabilizing the slope; recovered about $2.2 million so far, with sale proceeds aimed at closing the gap.
