Community Center Special Tax Ballot Measure

Summary

Belmont's community center has aging infrastructure and safety issues, and a citizen-led parcel tax (Measure Y) on the November ballot could fund a new Community Center, Aquatics Facility, and Gymnasium. The council set up a design-build framework now so the city can move quickly if voters say yes.
