Votes at a glance: Brentwood council approves vehicle purchases, wastewater reimbursement resolution, Jeffrey Way contract and committee assignments
The Brentwood City Council took several formal votes at its Jan. 13 meeting. Key outcomes recorded in the meeting transcript:

• Consent calendar adopted (roll call recorded; item included an ordinance repealing and replacing chapter 17.725 of the municipal code). (Consent adopted.)

• G1 — Vehicle purchases and budget amendment: Council adopted a resolution authorizing purchase of five replacement vehicles and one new vehicle (police and public works units) with total authorization not to exceed $1,600,000 and an amendment to the FY25–26 vehicle replacement fund operating budget by $356,000. (Motion passed by roll call.)

• G3 — Wastewater reimbursement resolution: Council adopted a resolution declaring the city’s official intent to reimburse certain capital expenditures for the wastewater treatment plant expansion from potential future bond proceeds. Staff said the project remained underfunded by approximately $29,000,000 and estimated a potential wastewater rate impact of roughly 1.5% per year for five years if bond financing is used; the council approved the reimbursement resolution to preserve flexibility.

• G4 — Jeffrey Way (Phase 1) utility extension: After rebidding, six bids were received; the lowest apparent bid was R & R Pacific Construction at $2,451,506. Council approved award and authorized a contract amount of $2,800,000 including a 15% contingency.

• G5 — Committee assignments: The council adopted the committee assignment slate and adjusted meeting schedules (e.g., Age & Disabilities Friendly Communities Committee confirmed at 6:00 p.m.).

Votes: where roll‑call tallies were recorded in the transcript, the actions above passed by unanimous council vote (5–0) on Jan. 13, 2026.

Provenance: vehicle purchase includes staff presentation and public comment on electric vehicles; wastewater item followed earlier presentations in December; Jeffrey Way award followed an explanation of bids and funding sources.
