Top issues during term (14)(General)
Aging water and sewer infrastructure
Grant and federal funds, including $3.9 million from Congresswoman Matsui, offset connection costs for property owners.
employee misconduct termination
Your tax dollars are at the center of it, and while the exact amount isn’t clear, there could be costs for the purchase plus investigation and legal fallout.
trash contract workshop
Your garbage bill and service quality could be shaped by what happens next, so the workshop is worth watching.
trash hauler switch and rate increase
Your monthly trash bill is going up, so budget for a higher recurring utility cost even though the exact amount isn’t stated yet.
Massage business regulation update
Businesses pay an application deposit of up to $3,000 for permitting.
Five-year consolidated plan and 2026 CDBG funding
About $576,333 in anticipated federal CDBG funds for the 2026 program year.
noise ordinance
It's unclear if these new noise rules will cost you more, but they could mean fewer fines for being too loud.
redistricting lawsuit
Taxpayer money might be spent on legal fees and potentially redoing the maps, so your dollars could be tied up in this fight.
building permits
This project means a big boost for the local economy with new jobs and increased tax revenue.
street renaming
It'll cost a bit to swap out those signs, but it's a necessary expense for a more inclusive city.
zoning dispute
This could mean changes to how much you can build on your property, potentially affecting home values.
tourism strategy
More tourists mean more money flowing into local businesses, which is great for everyone.
port closure lawsuit
This lawsuit could cost taxpayers a bundle if the city loses, and it might put a pause on any new housing projects.
redlining lawsuit
The city might have to pay up or change its development plans, which could cost a lot.
