Council Approves Ballot Measure for November Election

At its regular meeting on July 15, 2025, the City Council adopted an ordinance that provides for the submission of a ballot measure in the November 2025 election to issue bonds to fund the design and construction of a Public Safety and Maintenance Facility that will replace the existing Public Works building, maintenance yard, and temporary police facilities.

The new Facility will provide a permanent location for the City’s Police Department, Public Works Maintenance teams, the Emergency Operations Center, Information Technology, Geographic Information Systems, and Customer Service.
