Economic development
Rice tonnage through the port jumped 52% this year under a new US-Japan trade agreement, with 80-90% of Sacramento Valley rice now moving through West Sacramento. The agreement has no end date and could support up to 550,000 tons annually.
Future of the Fifth & C urban farm and Three Sisters Gardens lease
The city must decide whether to give Three Sisters Gardens a 10-year free lease to build permanent farm facilities, lease at market rate (~$2,000/month), or keep the month-to-month status quo.
