City Council Regular Meeting — Wed, Aug 26, 2026

Several proclamations and updates will be heard: September designations for Caseworker Appreciation Month and Workforce Development Month, and an update on the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District's plan to reauthorize funding ahead of a November 2028 ballot measure. The Parks, Recreation, and Senior Services Department proposes a new fee schedule effective January 1, 2027, with incremental annual increases alternating between market-based adjustments in even years and flat 3% raises in odd years, targeting cost recovery of 50% to 60%. Council will consider first readings of two ordinances: one updating regulations for electric bikes and motorized vehicles to align with state law, and another requiring public hearings for any site development plan changes that would reduce or eliminate outdoor recreation facilities such as pools, playgrounds, or dog parks. Additional items include amendments to the flag policy to allow military branch and POW/MIA flags on city flagpoles and along Midway, a modification to Council Rules to provide scheduling flexibility for budget study sessions, and a drought status update.
