Top issues during term (20)
Flock License Plate Reader Surveillance Program
Speakers demanded disclosure of termination and removal costs for the program.
Affordable Housing Impact Fee Assistance
Up to $150,000 per qualifying project drawn from the existing $200,000 annual housing fund — no new money requested.
Repeal of Water Requirements for Non-Subdivision Homes
Defending the ordinance in court could cost far more than the roughly $146,000 figure cited in debate, and an adverse state action could hit shared state revenue.
Development Impact Fee Increases
Fee amounts unknown until the consultant study is complete; first update in over ten years.
Aquatics & Recreation Facility
Events generated revenue — 22 premium canopy spaces at $1,100 each and $3,860.49 in beer garden net sales.
Effluent Recharge Expansion and PFAS Concerns
$659,358 on a time-and-materials basis over roughly two years.
Youth Priorities: Teen Center, Sidewalks, and Retention
A teen center would require significant future investment; no figure was given.
FY 2027-28 Budget Planning
Sets $222,559,730 in town spending authority for fiscal year 2027.
Fain Park Bridge Investment Question
About $3.8 million budgeted for engineering, trails, and parking this year, with more planned over five years.
Town Center Specific Plan and $11.2M Infrastructure Commitment
New businesses promise added sales tax revenue and about 50 new jobs from Arizona Archery alone.
Enforceable Code of Conduct for Elected Officials
The only state-authorized penalty is a nominal fine (cited as $20 to $25 by speakers), plus censure or a vote of no confidence.
2024 fire code amendments including residential sprinkler trigger
Not specified, though code updates in-house save consultant costs.
Wildland-Urban Interface code and Community Wildfire Protection Plan
Fire modeling software would require grant funding and a dedicated purchase; wildfire risk affects homeowners' insurance costs.
Water Conservation Strategic Plan
Roughly $400,000–$500,000 per year in new program spending, recovered through the water rate study.
Zoning Code Modernization
Could speed up business approvals and reduce staff review friction; no direct cost stated.
Duplex development in single-family neighborhoods
Renters and would-be buyers could see fewer affordable duplex options if this signals a stricter stance going forward.
Town employee pay and compensation study
Could affect the town's payroll costs and budget when the study comes back for adoption.
Noise and Traffic Enforcement Complaints
A $244,000 state highway safety grant will fund enforcement and education programs in fiscal year 2026-27.
Broadband upgrades by Sparklight
Customers typically saving several hundred dollars a year, per Sparklight.
