Adopt city and redevelopment agency budgets for fiscal year 2010-11
In Plain English
The city must formally approve its annual spending plan by July 1 to fund basic services like police, fire, parks, and road maintenance. The budget also covers the redevelopment agency, which focuses on affordable housing and economic development projects. If approved, both budgets take effect immediately for the new fiscal year.

Why This Vote Matters
The council unanimously voted to delay adopting the city's annual budget until their June 22 meeting. This postpones approval of the spending plan that funds essential services like police, fire protection, parks, and road repairs, as well as affordable housing and economic development programs through the redevelopment agency. Cities must adopt their budgets by July 1 to ensure uninterrupted funding for basic services. The delay suggests council members need more time to review the proposal before making their final decision.
