Top issues during term (20)
Tennis and pickleball ball recycling
Costs would be limited to collection infrastructure at city facilities if an ordinance is drafted.
October 7 Permanent Memorial — 'Shared Light Between Us'
Donation of up to $10,000 from the State of Israel; the revision caps the city's financial exposure at its $500,000 commitment.
Westside Cities Affordable Housing Trust membership
No direct city cost now, but $377,000 in first-year trust administrative costs (8% of the Measure A pot), with cities potentially on the hook for fees if costs exceed the 12.5% cap.
SB 79 transit-oriented development rules near Metro stations
No direct dollar figure; the plan shapes how state-mandated housing density is distributed across the city.
State housing mandates and the housing element
Failure to comply could expose the city to uncontrolled builder's remedy projects; compliance drives roughly $10 million in parking spending on this site alone.
100% affordable senior housing at 327-335 South Robertson Boulevard
Roughly $9.6 million to build the parking, $500K-$750K for equipment, and about $200K-$250K a year to operate, if the council proceeds.
Historic pavers preserved at 8484 Wilshire
Metro, not the city, bears the cost of restoration and any preservation consultant Metro hires.
2027 Golden Globes street closures and fee waiver
$25,000 new request for Festival Beverly Hills; major-event activations unfunded this year.
Firefighters' Association labor agreement
$134,000 from the general fund in fiscal year 2025-26.
Lower speed limits under new state law
New signage is budgeted; opting into lower school-zone limits early would cost roughly $15,000 twice.
Wikipedia resolution postponed
Louis Vuitton flagship plan-review contract
Up to $161,975, fully offset by LVMH project processing fees — no hit to the General Fund balance.
George S. Hall facilities maintenance contract increase
$1.6 million more in contract spending plus $880,000 in new appropriations from the Capital Assets and Parking Enterprise funds.
Power Outages
The upgrade will eliminate reliance on the damaged Doheny substation; residents asked about generators and compensation.
Rodeo Drive 50th anniversary and city marketing
City contribution rises about 9% to $350,846, drawn from tourism/marketing funds.
Willaman Drive Trees Project
About $100,000 to plant 50 trees, within the existing street tree master plan budget.
Arnaz Mini Park and La Cienega park improvements
About $1.7 million total in hard costs, with the amendment adding $31,900 (total not-to-exceed $116,742) for design services.
SCE electrical infrastructure dispute between One Beverly Hills and the Peninsula
$2-3 million a year in city utility bills.
Public Safety and Crime Reduction Priorities
No new money — a $1.6 million reallocation within existing department budgets.
FY 2026-27 fee schedule amendments and county industrial waste pass-through increases
Fee revenue adjusts with a 3.6% CPI increase on most items; some fees drop, and three new state-mandated fees add revenue.
