$125 Million General Obligation Bond for Civic and Infrastructure Projects

The council voted 5-0 to put a $125 million bond on the November 2026 ballot for a new civic center, library, police facility, sports field, and water and stormwater infrastructure. Homeowners would pay about $105 per $100,000 of assessed value per year. A recent poll showed roughly two-thirds support.
