FY 2026-27 budget

The half-cent Measure Q sales tax is on pace to hit $14.5 million this year, funding fire engines, police vehicles, twelve public safety positions, road repair backfill, and park equipment. Next year roughly half of it — about $8 million — would go to debt service on bonds for the new police department and fire station six, raising concerns that parks, a rec center, and roads get squeezed.
