County transportation funding priorities: Aqueduct Pathway and Pleasant Hill Road

$3.737 million in state money coming in FY 2029 for the pathway.

Driverless shuttle on Mt. Diablo Boulevard

Unknown for now — the city hopes a vendor would supply the technology as a pilot, with no committed local spending.

FY 2026/2027 Capital Improvement Program

The city spends roughly $3.5–4 million a year on paving to keep the pavement condition index at or above 75.

Downtown Employee Parking Plan and Lease Terminations

Businesses currently pay about $40/month per space; the new public lots would run roughly $5 all-day, with revenue to the city but new costs for displaced tenants.

Transit funding priority under SB 63

Foregoes a potential $1–2 million in additional regional transportation funding.

Countywide evacuation study and Lamorinda smart signals

A four-intersection pilot of pre-positioned traffic-control boxes would cost under $100,000 and could be funded in the upcoming budget.

SB-1 Pavement Maintenance Funding

Protects more than $1 million a year that Lafayette uses for road maintenance.

Mt. Diablo corridor multimodal planning and downtown transportation

The corridor study is underway with consultants, and objective design standards are due by year's end.

Town Center Pathway and BART Station Improvement Project

Aqueduct Path EBMUD Roadblock

Grant-funded design funding is at risk while the designer is on hold.

Moraga Way safety and connectivity study

Funded by a federal SS4A grant; no local construction costs at this stage.

Multi-Modal Mobility Advisory Committee

School Street and Topper Lane pathway project

Construction traffic and road integrity on narrow Springhill Road

Road repairs on the private stretch have historically been self-funded by neighbors, not the city.

Lamorinda Spirit Van 20th anniversary and senior mobility

The city provides annual funding, office space, and administrative support; new grant-funded vans arrive by 2027.

Lamorinda school bus program funding

Grant-funded; no new city cost, with a $104,142 allocation secured.
