EXPENSES

CITY STAFFING

In 2011, the City had 426 career positions, but due to the Great Recession, that number fell drastically as shown below.
Since then, the City was able to maintain lower staffing levels due to strategic investments in software to increase
operational efficiency. In 2024 the City had 402 career positions, and currently the city has 459 career positions, which is
a 14% increase. For FY 26/27 an additional positions were approved for a total of 462. This is partially due to the
expansion of our MV Electric Utility and implementation of the approved Measure U. Measure U funding will be used to
enhance our quality of life through addressing homelessness; repairing streets/potholes; keeping public areas safe/clean.
