SUMMARY
The 2025/26 Operating Budget (“Budget”) reflects careful financial planning in
providing municipal services that meet the Town’s highest priorities, while maintaining
prudent reserves. The ten-year forecasts illustrate how future conditions could affect
long term fiscal sustainability and identify when further actions may be necessary to
affect revenues or expenditures.
Total revenues of $46,857,943 are forecast, including $45,027,266 for the Town and
$1,830,677 for the Successor Agency. Town revenues include $32,723,274 from the
General Fund and $12,303,992 from Special (Restricted) Purpose sources.
Recommended operating expenditures total $42,631,494, including $41,460,218 for the
Town and $1,171,276 for the Successor Agency. Town operating expenditures are funded
through $29,796,914 from the General Fund, and $11,663,304 from Special Purpose
revenue.
BACKGROUND
As the Town prepares the 2025/26 Operating Budget, Danville remains on solid fiscal
ground, with overall revenues tracking ahead of projections and expenditures within
budget. However, looking forward, the Town is entering a more complex and dynamic
economic environment that calls for careful planning, long-term discipline, and proactive
fiscal stabilization efforts.
Like many communities, Danville faces a confluence of external pressures: persistent
inflation, rising utility, contract and insurance costs, geopolitical instability, climate-
related disruptions (such as atmospheric rivers), and uncertainty surrounding federal
economic policy. While inflation has begun to moderate—with the Consumer Price Index
2025/26 Operating Budget II June 17, 2025
(CPI) at 2.8% as of early 2025—it remains above the Federal Reserve’s target of 2%.
Meanwhile, interest rates, energy prices, and global conflicts continue to contribute to
economic uncertainty.
Revenue and Expenditure Trends
Property tax remains the Town’s largest and most stable revenue source to support
ongoing municipal services. Although Danville receives only about 7% of the total
property taxes paid by local property owners, high valuations have kept pace with
inflation, helping to preserve revenue stability and growth.
Sales tax revenue has declined for two consecutive years following record highs in
2021/22 and 2022/23. This trend reflects broader changes in consumer behavior, such as
increased online shopping, reduced activity in the automotive and fuel sectors, and
shifting allocations of e-commerce revenue (via the County Pool). As a result, sales tax
revenues are projected to remain flat in 2025/26, underscoring the importance of
continued vigilance and adaptability.
One of the Town’s most pressing fiscal issues has focused on the Town-wide Lighting
and Landscape Assessment District (LLAD 1983-1) which funds a significant portion of
the annual budget for maintenance and operations of the Town’s parks, roadside
landscaping, and streetlighting improvements. These community features are major
contributors to the overall quality of life enjoyed by residents and property owners.
Because assessment rates were unchanged with no escalator from 2003 through 2025,
LLAD revenues had fallen well short of covering LLAD expenditures. This in turn
created a growing need for General Fund subsidies to sustain current service levels. By
2025, this approach had become unsustainable.
To address this imbalance, the Town initiated a Proposition 218 property owner protest
ballot proceeding, seeking approval for a new rate structure and updated assessment
methodology (LLAD 2025-1). The process was concluded successfully in May 2025, with
57.1% of the weighed ballots cast supporting the formation of a new LLAD. On June 3,
2025, the Town Council adopted a Resolution No. 38-2025, ordering the formation of
LLAD 2025-1, replacing the former LLAD 1983-1. LLAD 2025-1 is expected to generate
an additional $1.4 million annually, allowing the Town to sustain current service levels
for the maintenance of parks, street lighting, and roadside landscaping.
Another fiscal challenge is the result of the Town’s reduced access to competitive State
and Federal infrastructure grants. In recent years, changes to funding criteria have
increasingly prioritized regionally designated “disadvantaged communities,” which
limits Danville’s eligibility—particularly for pavement rehabilitation projects. As a result,
even though Danville’s major arterial roadways support significant intraregional travel,
limited access to external funding has shifted the responsibility for their maintenance
2025/26 Operating Budget III June 17, 2025
back to the General Fund, placing additional strain on the Town’s discretionary
resources.
The implementation of the Town’s newly certified Housing Element will bring significant
multifamily housing growth, which may shift long-term service demands and alter the
Town’s revenue mix. These developments will require ongoing evaluation and long-term
planning.
Finally, the retirement of the loan repayment from the former Community Development
(Redevelopment) Agency to the Town in 2026/27 will reduce discretionary General Fund
capacity that has previously been utilized to fund one-time capital needs.
Service Priorities
Despite economic pressures, the Town remains committed to its mission to deliver high-
quality municipal services while protecting its long-term financial health. Careful
planning, transparent communication, and disciplined decision-making continue to
guide our efforts as we prepare for the future. In order to achieve this mission, we:
• keep residents, businesses and property safe.
• provide well-maintained public facilities.
• protect our environment, preserve our history and retain our special character.
• celebrate diversity, dignity and equality for all members of our community.
• provide opportunities that support residents’ growth and enrichment.
• promote and support economic vitality and growth.
• represent and promote Danville’s best interests.
• celebrate community through family oriented special events; and
• effectively engage and communicate with residents and businesses.
Service Delivery Approach
Consistent with past practice, Danville remains committed to fiscal sustainability. This
begins at the policy level and translates into careful management practices and cost-
effective service delivery. Municipal services address the highest priority needs by
effectively combining use of Town personnel with contracted or privatized services and
partnerships with other service providers. Technology will continue to play an ever-
growing role in providing community access to Town services. These approaches have
allowed the Town to achieve and maintain:
balanced annual budgets with positive year-end fund balances
annual General Fund transfers to support high priority capital needs
appropriate operating and capital reserves
zero unfunded pension or other post-employment benefit liabilities; and
sustainable ongoing ten-year forecasts

2025/26 Highlights
A number of significant programs and initiatives planned for 2025/26 are expected to
contribute significantly to the overall quality of life enjoyed by Danville residents.
Public Safety
The Police Department will continue to build on its strong foundation of public safety,
innovation, and community partnership, that has established Danville as one of the safest
cities in California. With Part 1 crimes trending below the Town’s 10-year average and
case clearance rates consistently outperforming national benchmarks, the department
will maintain its focus upon crime prevention through a combination of technology and
investigative capacity. Community engagement will remain a cornerstone, with
programs like Coffee with the Cops, Citizens Academies, and youth outreach evolving
to meet the needs of Danville’s growing and diverse community.
2025/26 Operating Budget V June 17, 2025
Economic Development
Supporting a vibrant local economy remains a top priority. The Town has launched a
new Economic Development strategy grounded in a “four-legged stool” model—Town,
business owners, property owners, and the community—working together to strengthen
Danville’s business ecosystem. The strategy centers on four key efforts: (1) business
education workshops; (2) destination marketing to highlight Danville’s unique appeal;
(3) promotional support to drive foot traffic; and (4) Downtown business engagement
through a grassroots business association. These efforts aim to strengthen local
businesses, enhance Downtown vitality, and align with evolving consumer trends.
Downtown
With the completion of the $4.9 million Downtown Catalyst Project, the Town has
fulfilled three key community priorities voiced during the COVID-19 pandemic: (1)
enhancing pedestrian safety by calming vehicle traffic through the downtown; (2)
expanding public gathering spaces, including the enhancement of Prospect Park Plaza
and creation of the flexible-use Theatre Plaza; and (3) significantly increasing lighting
along Hartz Avenue. With these improvements in place, the Town will now shift its focus
to activating these spaces through music, events, and community programming—a
central component of Danville’s Economic Development strategy.
Diablo Road Trail
The Diablo Road Trail will close a long-standing gap between the existing Barbara Hale
Trail and Mount Diablo State Park, enhancing regional connectivity and outdoor access.
The completed 2.1-mile trail will include an existing 0.5-mile segment, a recently
constructed 0.7-mile segment through the Magee Preserve development, and a 0.9-mile
segment across steep, challenging terrain to be built by the Town. Following significant
redesign prompted by winter 2023 atmospheric storm damage—including a culvert
collapse and significant creek bank erosion. The project is now advancing toward a
summer 2025 bid process, with construction anticipated to begin in fall 2025.
Infrastructure Maintenance
Since incorporation, the Town has developed a broad array of community assets—
including roads, trails, bikeways, parks, public buildings, and turf fields—that are used
daily and remain a source of community pride. As this infrastructure network has
expanded and aged, so too has the need to dedicate a growing share of the capital budget
to maintaining it to ensure the long-term safety and functionality. Today, the majority of
the capital budget is focused on capital maintenance and infrastructure replacement. In
2025/26, three major maintenance projects are planned: The Pavement Management
Project (C-610), the Sycamore Valley Road Improvements Project (C-635), and the Diablo
Vista Park Playground Replacement Project (B-560).
2025/26 Operating Budget VI June 17, 2025
Housing
With adoption of the 2023-31 General Plan Housing Element the Town has updated
zoning standards to implement changes needed to accommodate the development of
new higher density housing. Efforts continue to inform residents of these state-mandated
changes, while processing the first applications submitted under the new standards.
Community Outreach
The Town continues with active engagement efforts to build a strong connection with the
community and support local businesses. This includes a monthly email newsletter,
social media efforts including Nextdoor, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, the Live
Locally Quarterly Newsletter and the “Town Talks with the Mayor” program.
Sustainability
Danville is part of MCE Clean Energy, providing ratepayers with greater renewable
energy choices. Electricity usage is reduced through operation of photovoltaic arrays at
Town facilities. In 2024, water usage to maintain Town parks and roadsides was reduced
by 17% and 10%, respectively. Efforts continue to implement SB 1383, aimed at reducing
disposal of organic materials generated through various Town activities and services.
2025/26 Operating Budget Summary
The Budget continues to focus on the Town’s highest priorities. The Budget is balanced,
reserves funding for capital projects, and maintains strong reserves.
Revenues
Total revenues of $46,857,943 are forecast, including $45,027,266 for the Town and
$1,830,677 for the Successor Agency. Town revenues include $32,723,274 from the
General Fund and $12,303,992 from Special (Restricted) Purpose sources.
General Fund
General Fund revenues are forecast to total $32,273,274, an increase of 4.1% from 2024/25.
Property Tax, Sales Tax, Recreation Fees and Franchise Fees account for 93.6% of General
Fund revenues. The General Fund is forecast to account for 75.0% of Town revenues.
• Property Tax is forecast to total $18,900,000 (57.8% of total G.F. revenues), up 5.6% from
2024/25. Although the Town receives only 7% of total property taxes paid by Danville
property owners, strong growth in property valuation continues to increase property
tax revenues.
• Sales Tax is forecast to total $6,400,000 (19.6% of total G.F. revenues), down 2.5% from
2024/25. Sales Tax includes the 1% local business (Bradley Burns) share plus the
Town’s share of the county pool allocation attributable to “e-sales”.
2025/26 Operating Budget VII June 17, 2025
• Recreation Fees and Charges are forecast to total $2,758,085, up 7.2% from 2024/25. The
2025/26 forecast reflects new growth in Recreation Fees and Charges following a four
year long recovery period resulting from the pandemic.
• Franchise Fees are forecast to total $2,573,592 up 7.8% from 2024/25. The increase is
due to increased solid waste franchise fees.
• All Other General Fund Revenues are forecast to total $2,091,597, up 3.4% from 2024/25.
Special Purpose
Special Purpose revenues are forecast to total $12,303,992 up 15.3% from 2024/25.
Lighting and Landscape assessments, Building and Planning fees, Gas Tax, Solid Waste
Vehicle Impact Fees, Measure J Return to Source funds and Clean Water assessments
account for 94.9% of Special Purpose revenues. Special Purpose revenues are forecast to
account for 27.3% of Town revenues.
• Lighting and Landscape Assessment District revenues are forecast to total $4,568,731, up
46.0% from 2024/25. Revenue growth is attributable to formation of the new LLAD
2025-01. The additional $1.44 million in new revenue will reduce the LLAD operating
deficit and lessen reliance upon the General Fund to support LLAD activities.
• Building and Planning revenues are forecast to total $2,440,744, down 11.3% from
2024/25. This follows an upswing in permit activity associated with several large
prior year projects. As development activity is tied to market conditions and timing
of individual projects, these revenues are expected to vary from year to year.
• Gas Tax (Highway Users Tax) revenues are forecast to total $1,943,276, up 2.5% from
2024/25. Gas Tax funds continue to be critical to the Town’s ability to perform
ongoing public street maintenance.
• Solid Waste Vehicle Impact Fees are forecast to total $1,256,361 , up 35.8% from 2024/25.
This fee revenue helps to offset the impacts upon Town streets attributable to solid
waste and recycling collection vehicles.
• Measure J Return to Source revenues are forecast to total $878,476, up 2.5% from
2024/25. Gas Tax revenues fund the Town’s Street and Traffic Signal Maintenance
programs and contribute to the annual Pavement Management Program.
• Clean Water Assessment revenues are forecast to total $584,020, up 1.0% from 2024/25.
Revenue growth is flat due to negligible new development and fixed assessments.
Successor Agency
Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) revenues are received to pay Successor
Agency Recognized Obligations. Revenues are forecast to total $1,830,677 for 2025/26.
2025/26 Operating Budget VIII June 17, 2025
The Successor Agency will continue to receive RPTTF funds until all outstanding
obligations are retired by 2034/35.
Expenditures
Recommended operating expenditures total $42,631,494, including $41,460,218 for the
Town and $1,171,276 for the Successor Agency.
Town 2025/26 Operating Expenditures
Recommended operating expenditures total $41,460,218 up 4.3% from 2024/25.
Operating expenditures are funded through $29,796,914 from the General Fund, and
$11,663,304 from Special Purpose revenue.

• General Government recommended expenditures total $3,424,706, a decrease of 1%
from the prior year. The reduction is primarily due to lower City Clerk costs in a non-
election year.
• Police Services recommended expenditures total $12,966,938, an increase of 5.8% over
the prior year. Increased costs are driven by escalating contractual personnel costs
and a 75% increase in liability insurance costs. The Town pays for the direct service
costs through the contract with the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office.
• Administrative Services recommended expenditures total $5,704,403, an increase of
8.8% over the prior year. Increased costs are driven by the need for additional Asset
Replacement expenditures, and increased contract costs for Library Services and
Animal Control through Contra Costa County.
• Development Services recommended expenditures total $5,416,686, an increase of 4.5%
over the prior year. Increased costs are driven by increasingly stringent Clean Water
compliance requirements mandated by the State Regional Water Quality Control
2025/26 Operating Budget IX June 17, 2025
Board, and increased Capital Project Management costs. This department is 75.8%
funded through Special Purpose Revenue.
• Maintenance Services recommended expenditures total $9,775,455 an increase of 3.1%
over the prior year. Maintenance costs continue to be driven by water (EBMUD) costs
which increase by 12.2% or $195,178 over 2024/25 despite reduced usage. Electricity
(PG&E) costs also continue to increase annually at rates that significantly outpace the
SF Bay Area CPI. This department is 69.9% funded through Special Purpose Revenue.
• Recreation, Arts and Community Services recommended expenditures total $4,172,030,
an increase of 0.9% over the prior year. This department is 66.1% funded through
Recreation Fees and Charges. Successor Agency
Recommended Successor Agency expenditures total $1,171,276, a decrease of .10% from
the prior year. Expenditures cover debt service payments approved as part of the Town’s
Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS), and allowable administrative costs.
Lighting and Landscape Assessment District (LLAD) 2025-1
The Townwide LLAD partially funds maintenance of street lighting, roadside
landscaping, public parks and buildings. Annual assessments are set pursuant to
Proposition 218. Assessment revenue is combined with transfers from the General Fund
to fund LLAD operations. With the formation of the new LLAD in 2025, assessment
revenue is increased to fund a larger percentage of the total LLAD operating costs.

Revenues total $6,168,731 including $4,568,731 from assessments and a General Fund
transfer of $1,600,000. Recommended expenditures total $5,688,567 an increase of 3.1%
from the prior year. The remaining available LLAD fund balance totals $3,681,870, an
increase of 15.0% from the prior year. The passage of LLAD 2025-1 will reduce the
dependence of LLAD operations upon subsidies from the General Fund and allow for
continuous ongoing maintenance of Town parks, roadsides and street lighting at current
service levels for the foreseeable future.
2025/26 Operating Budget X June 17, 2025
General Fund Transfers and Designations
Transfers In
Community Development Agency (CDA) Loan Re-Payment – Debt re-payment of $659,401 is
included toward the balance owed to the Town under the Cooperative Loan agreement
between the Town and the former CDA. This loan will be retired in 2025/26.

$500,000 for Pavement Management and $50,000 for Asset Replacement.
Staffing and Employee Costs
The Town workforce includes regular employees, contract employees (sworn police
officers) from the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office, and temporary part-time
employees. Table 4 illustrates budgeted staffing for fiscal years 2024/25 and 2025/26.
Table 4
Town Staffing – Total FTEs 2024/25 2025/26
Regular Employees 95.75 95.75
Contract Employees (Police) 30.00 30.00
Temporary Employees 33.75 24.75
Total 159.5 150.5
For 2025/26, regular employee expenses increased by 1.75% to $14,990,823. Employee
salary ranges are recommended to be increased by 3.0%. Eligible Town employees
receive annual merit-based salary increases. Town employees receive a 401a defined
contribution pension and no Town-funded retirement medical benefits. The Town has no
unfunded pension or other post-employment benefit liabilities.
Operating Reserve Policy
Resolution No. 35-98 established a minimum Operating Reserve level equivalent to 20%
of the annual operating budget. The current Operating Reserve is funded at $16,009,768.
The current Operating Reserve is equivalent to 38.6% of the total operating budget, or
53.7% of the General Fund budget.
Master Fee Schedule
The Town Council annually reviews all Town fees and charges and adopts a Master Fee
Schedule. For the most part, 2025/26 Fees and Charges are increased by 2.8% to reflect
the February over February increase in the San Francisco Bay Area Consumer Price Index.
2025/26 Operating Budget XI June 17, 2025
Ten-Year Forecasts
Ten-year forecasts that cover fiscal years 2025/26 through 2034/35 are updated annually
to assist with planning and ensure on-going sustainability of service delivery. Forecasts
illustrate that the Town will continue to rely upon General Fund and Special Revenues
to deliver service. Contracted services and utility costs are fueled by higher levels of
inflation and are expected to continue to increase at rates that outpace revenue growth.
Revenues
Forecasts project a 10.25% increase in total revenues, from $46.86 million in 2025/26 to
$51.66 million in 2034/35. General Fund revenues increased by 12.94%, from $32.72
million to $36.96 million; Special Purpose revenues increased by 16.56% from $12.30
million to $14.34 million. Successor Agency revenues declined by 80.12% from $1.83
million to $363,932 as remaining debt obligations are retired.
Real Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) revenues received by the Successor Agency are
reduced as Agency debts are retired. Re-payment of the outstanding loan from the
former Community Development (Redevelopment) Agency to the Town will be
completed in full by 2025/26, reducing General Fund revenues by $659,401 million
annually.
LLAD 2025-1 will generate sufficient assessment revenue to cover 80.3% of annual LLAD
expenditures in 2025/26, increasing to 83.0% by 2034/35. The General Fund subsidy to
the LLAD averages $958,496 annually over the ten-year forecast.
Operating Expenditures
Ten-year forecasts project operating expenditures to increase by 29.41%, from $41.46
million in 2025/26 to $50.73 million in 2034/35, equivalent to 2.94% annually. Successor
Agency expenditures decrease by 68.93% from $1.17 million to $363,932, as the 2001
Certificates of Participation and 2001 Taxable Revenue Bonds are retired in 2026/27 and
2028/29, leaving only the 2005 Certificates of Participation to be retired by 2035.
Transfers and Designations
Forecasts project average annual General Fund transfers of $1.79 million for all purposes,
including CIP General Purpose, Pavement Management, Asset Replacement and LLAD
operations. A substantial portion of the annual transfers will continue to be allocated to
subsidizing LLAD activities. Revenues of $659,401 in 2025/26 are included for
repayment of the outstanding loan to the Town by the former Community Development
Agency. This loan is fully repaid in 2025/26.
2025/26 Operating Budget XII June 17, 2025
Forecasts project average annual transfers of $2.91 million from the General Fund and
Special Revenue sources into the Pavement Management Program to support residential
street maintenance.
2025/2026 Appropriation Limit
The Town Council is statutorily required to adopt an annual limit which fixes the amount
of general tax revenue that can be appropriated in the upcoming fiscal year. The limit is
adjusted annually based upon factors provided by the State Department of Finance, and
any excess revenue must be returned to the taxpayers.
The Town Council annually chooses between the population growth within either the
Town, or Contra Costa County as a whole. The selected growth factor is then multiplied
by the annual growth in California per capita income to arrive at the total annual
adjustment factor. For 2025/26, population growth is: -0.16% within Danville, and 0.10%
within Contra Costa County; annual growth in California per capita income is 6.4%.
Multiplying population growth within Contra Costa County by the annual growth in
California per capita income results in a total growth factor of 1.0644%. Increasing the
2024/25 appropriation limit by 6.44% results in a 2025/26 appropriation limit of
$57,255,944.
FY 2025/26, General Fund revenues are forecast to total $32,723,274, of which $27,130,707
is subject to the Proposition 111 appropriation limit. Town revenues subject to
Proposition 111 are well below the appropriation limit and no Proposition 111 constraints
are projected in the ten-year financial forecast.
SUMMARY
Moving forward, the Town’s overall fiscal condition remains positive.
The 2025/26 Budget is balanced and maintains current service levels that provide for the
delivery of quality municipal services that address the highest priority community needs.
Appropriate operating and capital reserves are maintained.
The Town has no unfunded future liabilities related to employee pension or medical
costs. Subject to the Town’s ability to increase LLAD assessments for the first time since
2003, the ten-year forecasts for 2025/26 through 2034/35 illustrate that the Town is
continuing on a course that is fiscally sustainable.
PUBLIC CONTACT
Posting of the meeting agenda serves as notice to the general public. Notice of the public
hearing was published in a newspaper of general circulation. A draft of the Budget and
CIP was posted on the Town’s website for public review on May 1, 2025.
