Top issues during term (20)
FY26/27 Capital Improvement Program
$21,543,000 in FY26/27 capital spending, much of it from the general fund, enterprise funds, gas tax, and Measure F.
Data center zoning regulations
No direct cost, but future data centers could add water, power and noise burdens the new rules are meant to manage.
Industrial Health and Safety Ordinance annual review
The program invoiced $81,736 in first-year fees against roughly $560,000 in costs, targeting 50% cost recovery.
BCAMP Air Monitoring Program Funding Crisis
BCAMP needs replacement funding for a lost $5 million grant to keep operating past January 1.
El Niño Emergency Declaration and Flood Preparedness
About $1.8 million for the emergency sewer repair, funded from wastewater operating and capital accounts.
Valero site redevelopment review funding
About $10.5 million in combined general fund and utility revenue losses projected from the refinery closure.
Sidewalk vending permit fees
Minimal fiscal impact — the program's administrative fines aren't designed to raise revenue, and a permit fee will be set before it takes effect.
Bay Area Air District community grant funds
Up to $35 million for the city and $10 million for the school district from the air district.
Benicia Marina Breakwater Repairs
Total project cost about $4.5 million, including $650,000 from Marina Fund balance and $3.3 million released from city reserves.
Right-of-Way Vacation at 650 East N Street
The vacated land will be sold to the adjacent owner at appraised value, generating modest revenue for the city.
Library Financials and Staffing
The amendment allocates $1,600 this fiscal year and $800 next fiscal year from existing fund balance — no new city money.
Solid Waste Franchise Transition
Rates will be recalculated under a Prop 218 process with index adjustments capped at 6% per year.
Bay Area Air District grant applications
Up to $5 million in grant funds for resident rebates, with no local match required.
Art Gallery Policy Revision
Artists who sell work from the gallery donate 25% of the sale price to the library.
General Plan Circulation Element Update
Two-step policy proposals for 2027 goal setting
Several proposals would draw on limited staff time and, in the sidewalk case, a suggested $100,000 slice of gas tax money.
Interim Police Chief Leadership Gap
Interim chief paid $127.12/hour, capped at 960 hours per fiscal year.
Southern Pacific Railroad Depot project management costs
The construction contract is $192,559.65 (Amport settlement funds, not general tax money), and the contested management fee is $90,500 — potentially coming down after re-bids.
Proposed limited charter and Real Property Transfer Tax
Estimated to bring in $230,000-$250,000 a year at first, growing to about $3.3 million by 2050 — money the city says it needs to close a structural deficit and cover $200+ million in deferred maintenance.
November 2026 Ballot Measures X, Y and Z
These measures supply roughly a third of city services funding; better transparency could bolster confidence for future revenue asks.
