# Lafayette City Council Meeting

The Lafayette City Council meeting was held November 10, 2026. The Measure H Oversight Committee reported that FY2026 spending was consistent with voter commitments and came in nearly 4% under budget, leaving an approximately $500,000 carryover for FY2027. Reported uses included $1 million for roads and drainage, covering paving on 28 roads; about $480,000 for police services supporting two officers alongside a federal COPS grant; $1.3 million for capital and facility maintenance; and $100,000 for downtown maintenance. The committee said Measure H revenue exceeded the budget forecast. No contract awards, bids, or vendor selections were identified.

The council unanimously approved the consent calendar and adopted a resolution implementing housing-settlement-related General Plan and Downtown Specific Plan amendments, with a related ordinance scheduled for a second reading in December. It also advanced amendments to the Objective Design Standards, including discussion of fire-safety and street-tree provisions and a six-square-foot limit on individual upper-floor window panes; final adoption was continued to December 14. These land-use and design decisions may affect future development and business proposals, but no procurement action was taken on them. Other reports covered sales-tax trends, community organizations, crime prevention, and emergency preparedness.
