Pittsburg City Council — September 8, 2026

Pittsburg City Council meeting ·

An independent Pittsburg Chamber of Commerce summary of the City of Pittsburg's agenda — a Chamber service, not a City publication.

This is a light regular meeting with no public hearings, contract awards, or fee/tax actions on the calendar. The one spotlight item is the appointment of interviewed candidates to fill vacancies on several city commissions and committees, including the Housing Authority Governing Board (2 seats), Youth Commission Advisory (9 seats), Library Commission (1 alternate), and the CCTA Citizens Advisory Committee (1 seat). Consent items cover routine payment approval for a regional public-safety radio system and adoption of the Pittsburg Power Company's annual Wildfire Mitigation Plan for its Mare Island retail electric service.

Capital Improvement Program Update

Infrastructure

Staff presentation providing an update on the City's Capital Improvement Program.

Why it matters: Capital projects affect local infrastructure and can create construction and procurement activity relevant to contractors and businesses affected by public works.

What's being decided: No action required; informational presentation.

Appointments to Commission and Committee Vacancies

Appointments

Following interviews conducted at the August 17, 2026 special meeting, the Council will consider appointing candidates to vacancies on the Housing Authority Governing Board (2 seats), Youth Commission Advisory (9 seats), Library Commission (1 alternate seat), and the CCTA Citizens Advisory Committee (1 seat).

Why it matters: These bodies advise on housing, library, youth, and regional transportation matters; appointments determine who fills these public advisory and governing roles.

What's being decided: Approve appointments by motion.

Payment for East Bay Regional Communications System Authority Service

Contract

A resolution approving payment to the East Bay Regional Communications System Authority (EBRCSA) for continued use of the regional public-safety radio infrastructure carrying Pittsburg Police Department communications.

Why it matters: Public-safety radio service supports police operations that affect community and business safety; the payment is a recurring city expenditure.

What's being decided: Adopt the resolution approving payment.

Pittsburg Power Company 2026 Wildfire Mitigation Plan

Utility

A resolution adopting the Pittsburg Power Company's 2026 Wildfire Mitigation Plan and directing staff to file it with the CPUC Office of Energy Infrastructure Safety, as required by state law for PPC's retail electric service on Mare Island, Vallejo.

Why it matters: PPC operates a municipal utility subject to state wildfire regulation; the plan governs procedures affecting utility operations and compliance.

What's being decided: Adopt the resolution approving the plan and directing its filing.
