Top issues during term (20)(Development)
Homeless housing and services funding
The department uses state homekey and other grant funds for shelter, prevention, rapid rehousing, and counseling programs.
Homelessness Action Plan
Prop One passage and state funding availability will shape whether affordable projects can be financed; only about 20% of the city's regional housing need is being tracked against a gap of roughly 7,600 very-low and low-income units.
CFD 2026-1 — Victoria Grove/Pinnacle Pointe/The Ranch
Up to $10 million in bonds and annual special taxes paid by future homeowners, not the city's general fund.
Affordable housing pipeline
Funding sources are still being secured for several projects, including a potential $1 million Citibank Foundation grant for Habitat for Humanity.
Missing middle housing pre-approved plans
Funded by a $500,000 grant; saves residents architect and design costs.
Executive board transitions
Employee Engagement
Turnover costs weren't quantified, but reducing early-career exits could save real recruiting and training dollars.
Altura Credit Union Headquarters Expansion (Canyon Springs Land Swap)
No direct city cost; potential future jobs and investment from headquarters expansion.
Affordable housing grant application
$3,530,352 in state grant funding.
August 2026 Airport operations and activity
Fewer operations could mean less fuel and activity revenue over time.
Harada House rehabilitation
The foundation has raised roughly $32,125 so far, with endowment fundraising ahead; construction bidding is imminent.
Proposed fueling station at Arlington and Monroe
Housing Authority projects update
Charter school on Magnolia Avenue
Tract Map 38921 — 49-home subdivision
West side hangar development
A long-term land lease would generate new airport revenue.
City Council Rules of Procedure amendments
