City Council Regular Meeting of July 21, 2026

The City Council of Victorville held a regular meeting on July 21, 2026, addressing multiple procurement and budget-related items primarily focused on water services and infrastructure. Key actions included the approval of new water rates, fees, and charges for the Victorville Water District following a Proposition 218 process, with no majority protest against the rate increases. The council also approved resolutions to levy unpaid water fees and other related service fees as liens on properties. Additionally, the council adopted the 2026 Water Master Plan update, outlining a 10-year capital improvement program to maintain and enhance water system infrastructure. A purchase of a portable generator for water system operations was approved, with a contract awarded to Quinn Power Systems for approximately $455,690. The council also authorized a lease agreement with the Victor Valley Transit Authority for the Victor Valley Transportation Center, with an annual lease of about $107,000 and a 2% annual inflation factor. Furthermore, the council accepted a $40,000 Carl Moyer Program Clean Air Fund grant to support public safety efforts. Motions related to these procurement and budget items passed unanimously. Other discussions included fire department budget appropriations for out-of-state deployments and designation of voting delegates for the League of California Cities annual conference. Public comments addressed concerns about water rate increases and community issues, but no changes to procurement policies were indicated.
