Danville Council To Vote On 2025/26 Operating Budget

DANVILLE, CA — The Danville Town Council will vote Tuesday whether to approve the 2025/26 Operating Budget, in addition to the Master Fee Schedule and the Successor Agency Budget for the former Community Development Agency.

The $46.9 million budget includes $32.7 million in General Fund revenue and $12.3 million in Special Purpose revenue, according to a town staff report. The budget projects $42.6 million in expenditures, which include public safety, infrastructure maintenance, community programming, and $1.83 million for the town's Successor Agency, which handles the obligations of the former Community Development Agency.

Danville remains in a strong financial position overall, with over $16 million in reserves, and no unfunded pension obligations. Nonetheless, the town still faces challenges like flat sales tax revenue, inflation, and reduced access to federal and state infrastructure grants. The successful ballot initiative to create a new Lighting and Landscape Assessment District is expected to bring in an additional $1.4 million annually.

The updated Master Fee Schedule includes modest fee increases around 2.8% to adjust for inflation.
