Topics getting the most attention in Yuba City public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Roadway audit and rehabilitation program
Yuba City's 255 miles of road average a pavement score of 47 out of 100, and only about $3.7 million a year is budgeted for all road capital work. The new $2.14M pavement audit is the groundwork for a possible $12-14 million bond to fund one big repaving project, paid back with roughly $2 million a year in SB 1 gas tax money.
Sam Brannan security improvements
The city's largest community park has become the top address for police calls in Yuba City, with drug overdoses in the bathrooms, harassment of Gray Avenue students, and reservations down over 50%. The council has now closed it temporarily while spending up to $265,000 on fencing, cameras, lighting, and cleanup to try to restore it as a safe public space.
