City Manager’s
Reflection
Thank You & Special Recognition
Council, staff, and community
One of my favorite meetings, because we plan
together as Team Manteca!
Measure Q Passed
Residents trust us to do what is right
Our community demands better, and we should too
Honor our commitments
Methodical Planning, Effective Action
Slow and steady, while getting things done
Momentum is already underway
We have proven we can do hard things
We’re shaping Manteca’s future as we speak
Toni Lundgren
Manteca City Manager
Our Financial Position Has Changed
We are in a different financial position than before.
Revenues have remained flat or decreased, but Measure Q will provide additional revenue.
However, Measure Q funds won’t be realized until the end of the year.
What This Means for Manteca
We finally get to fund important projects that benefit our community.
We must be strategic and pace ourselves—we cannot spend money we don’t yet have.
The public has spoken: roads, public safety, and community amenities are the top priorities.
Prioritization is Key
Many of today’s goals align with community needs.
But we can’t do everything at once—this is why prioritization is critical.
Our approach will ensure long-term, sustainable progress.
Beyond Measure Q: Thinking Bigger
Passing a sales tax measure was necessary to achieve our vision for Manteca.
But we must also be creative—seeking grants, partnerships, and other funding sources.
The goal: maximize our impact and deliver more for our community.
