January 20, 2026 - Council Debriefs Prior City facilities Bond Measure at Planning Session

During the January 16, 2026, City Council Planning Session, the City Council debriefed the prior City facilities bond measure and provided initial feedback on the framework to guide the facility planning work anticipated this year (AB 6840).

Proposition No. 1, included on the November 4, 2025, General Election ballot to fund the Public Safety and Maintenance Facility received 54.61% voter approval, which was short of the 60% needed for a successful bond measure.

The discussion included a look back at the history of the City’s long-range facility planning work and a debrief of the Proposition 1 ballot measure. The City Council and staff then discussed reframing the approach to replacing City facilities, use of the newly acquired 9655 Building, and planning for community engagement.

The facility discussion will continue at the March 3, 2026 Regular City Council meeting when the Council will receive the report on the results from the community survey on the bond measure.
