10.06.2026 - 2026 City of Oroville City Council Meeting

The City of Oroville City Council meeting on October 6, 2026, approved Resolution No. 9485 for three SBF funding applications. The applications may require a $5,000 city match if awarded; the discussion included proposed levee investigations, with core sampling estimated at roughly $10,000–$12,000 per sample. The vote was 3–2, with one recusal, following concerns about council members’ overlapping roles on the SBF committee and the city council. No contract awards or vendor selections were identified.

Following a public hearing, the council also approved the Cycle 2 Permanent Local Housing Allocation five-year plan and application, including allocations of $79,764 and $82,753 for 2024 and 2025, respectively, and authorized staff to implement the grant if awarded. Staff described using the funding to develop a program to redeem defaulted mortgages where the city holds a junior-position note, preserve the city’s investment, and support rehabilitation or acquisition of affordable single-family homes and vacant lots. The meeting also included updates on budgeted street repairs and paving, but no new procurement vote or specific contract award was reported.
