Barbara Ferraro

Landslide costs and buyout program

Over $1.6 million in new emergency contract authority plus roughly $40,000 more for each of the two appraisal contracts.

Transient Occupancy Tax ballot measure

Roughly $1.4 million a year at 12%, $2.8 million at 14%.

Landslide response and funding

$56.9 million spent to date; an estimated $13 million per year ongoing; the $150+ million permanent fix remains unfunded.

PV Drive South and PV Drive East Roadway Projects

Costs include mass notification mailings and possibly a larger venue; not yet quantified.

Roadway and storm drain construction scheduling

An emergency contract was used and will come back to the Council for ratification.

AM 1680 emergency radio station

Funding approved by City Council; streaming module (about $1,400 recurring) deferred for now.

Greater Portuguese Bend landslide emergency extensions

FEMA's BRIC program is resuming funding, which has been a major source for landslide mitigation; a $2.9 million federal earmark request for the EOC is also pending.

Ryan Park Playground and Three Sisters Connector Trail

$122,500 contract with a $92,500 budget adjustment, offset by a matching Measure A grant.

Cal Water Meter Fees and Downsizing

No direct cost; potential pressure on the utility's operating procedures.

Storm Drain Condition Assessment and Repairs

Unknown repair costs pending the inventory; past landslide-related utility impacts measured at under 5%.

Pano AI wildfire detection and Zone Zero rules

Free to residents; EDCO service covered under existing contract.

Community Foundation gift acceptance policy

The foundation starts with no money — early branding costs would come from the city's general fund until donations arrive.

Reopening Portuguese Bend Trails / Great Line Trail Route

Repair costs may already be rivaling remediation expenses according to the speaker; no official figure was given.

Sheriff's Station drone program

RPV's share is $44,080 up front plus proportional maintenance costs, already set aside in next year's budget.

Developer impact fees and nexus study

Study costs up to $50,000 (budgeted at $60,000); potential fee revenue of roughly $8.8 million over 25 years.

Landslide emergency work continues

Emergency stabilization operations, well re-drills, and storm pumping run into the millions annually, and the proposed permanent remediation fix is estimated around $40 million.

Public Safety Camera Reimbursement Program Suspension

Program reimbursements pause; HOAs already spent 25–50% of budgets on camera systems.

Wireless Facility Code Amendments / Cell Coverage

No direct cost, though city staff continue reviewing carrier applications under existing rules and may fund an independent coverage study.

Equine evacuation readiness

Mass care and evacuation grant funding will support the planning effort.

Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program guide overhaul

Alternative bumps cost $1,000+ per unit or up to $50,000 per two-lane location versus modest asphalt costs.
