- agenda-report The City must do more to address public safety and the homelessness crisis. The efforts from Mayor Brock to reallocate a portion of the City budget to this effort and Councilmember Zwick to consider the revenue generating tax measure to meet and exceed our public safety goals is appreciated. This motion bridges those two ideas. The City Council was thoughtful and cautious in adopting a balanced budget. However, the City faces a difficult economic climate, slow recovery, a challenging labor market, required deferred maintenance, and continued uncertainty in our legal liabilities. In adopting the FY 24-25 budget, the City reallocated resources to address public safety concerns but we need to do more as Mayor Brock conveyed at the last City Council meeting. The public needs to understand that the City has not recovered the pandemic and resources are limited. For this reason, the City Council must pursue new revenue opportunities to address our public safety needs. Keeping our community safe is our first priority. New Item Received. 9/17/2026
