City Council Meeting 4/14/2026

The City Council meeting of San Ramon on April 14, 2026, included several procurement-related discussions primarily focused on the adoption of the fiscal year 2026-2027 master fee schedule. The council reviewed and approved adjustments to over 1,000 municipal fees, including 521 fee increases and 12 new fees, such as an administration fee for collection agency services and a firearm storage fee. Public comments raised concerns about the clarity and timing of notices for these new fees, leading to a council consensus to pull the two new fees for further discussion and separate consideration. Additionally, the council received a detailed presentation on the city's revenue assumptions for the upcoming budget cycle, highlighting expected modest growth and challenges such as reduced sales tax and franchise fees. Other agenda items included proclamations recognizing National Library Week, arts and culture contributions, and the San Ramon Valley Islamic Center's community service. The meeting also featured discussions on city staffing, recruitment, and budgetary impacts related to service fees and development impact fees. No contract awards or vendor selections were reported during this session.
