Glendora council adopts FY26–27 midcycle budget update, moves CIP projects forward and adds police staffing
Summary
Council adopted the FY2026–27 midcycle budget, advanced capital projects including Live Oak street and water (moved into FY27), added police community impact positions and directed staff to return with analysis to fund an additional code-enforcement post.
The Glendora City Council approved a midcycle update to the two-year FY2025–27 budget on June 9, accepting updated forecasts, new federal grant awards and revisions to the five-year capital improvement plan.
Finance Director Kyle Johnson summarized changes including the addition of federally funded streets projects with local matches totaling roughly $3.5 million, and moving the Live Oak street and water project forward into FY2027 with an approximately $2 million allocation. Staff also described transparency improvements separating Measure E/Z programs from the general fund.
Council discussed public-safety staffing and one-time funding priorities. The budget includes an added community-impact team (CIT) police officer and moves a sergeant position forward into FY26–27. Councilmembers praised crime reductions and asked staff to present clearer Measure E/Z accounting and visual infographics showing how dedicated sales-tax revenues are used.
During deliberations Mayor David Frerieden and councilmembers debated adding an additional code‑enforcement/community-preservation officer to increase proactive neighborhood enforcement. Staff said fund balances permit exploration; council directed staff to return June 23 with a funding analysis for an additional community preservation officer and related startup costs. The motion to adopt the midcycle budget and related resolutions passed unanimously.
