10 years ago, the City s Planning Department had 33 building inspectors to conduct 63,000 inspections and plan reviews. Today, we have the same number of employees conducting 152,000 inspections and plan reviews. 10 years ago, the City had 12 libraries open for a total of 500 hours every week. Today, we have 17 libraries open for a total of almost 800 hours. I strongly feel that our City continues to be a better place, said Mayor Baca.
City government operates more efficiently than ever.
Our employees work hard with limited resources and we ve achieved AA ratings from the national bond agencies, reflecting our consistently strong financial management and satisfactory operations, favorable debt profile, and manageable capital plan.
