New Senior Public Works Inspector Position
Instead of paying contractors $248K-$600K a year for construction inspection, the city will hire an in-house inspector at about $186K, saving roughly $200K annually.

Council will keep action minutes but attach the Granicus transcript so the public can see full discussion — prompted by Fuller's complaints that minutes lack detail and transparency.

The library served about 8,200 patrons last year — more than half of Oakley's youth — ran 241 free programs, and handed out 333 cards to second graders. All free, with no overdue fines.
