Solano County Authorizes Lawsuit Over Delta Conveyance Project Certification
Board voted 4-0 in closed session to initiate litigation challenging the Delta Stewardship Council's April 2026 decision certifying the Delta Conveyance Project.
Why it matters: The Delta Conveyance Project is a major statewide water infrastructure proposal; Solano County's lawsuit signals strong local opposition to the certification of consistency.

Supervisors Push for Dramatically Higher Data Center Tax Rates in First-in-State Measure
Board directed staff to return with a higher data center business license tax rate and research on air rights and behind-the-meter energy taxation, keeping data centers within a single ballot measure.
Why it matters: No California county currently taxes data centers via business license; Solano County would set the precedent, with supervisors calling $0.12/sq ft 'very low' compared to potential utility tax revenues of $1.75M-$4.4M annually per facility.

Transient Occupancy TaxBoard of Supervisors19d agoJune 23, 2026
Hotel Tax Hike From 5% to 12% Headed to November Ballot
Board unanimously voted to place a measure on the November 2026 ballot increasing the transient occupancy tax in unincorporated areas from 5% to 12%.
Why it matters: The TOT hasn't been updated in years; the increase would align the unincorporated rate closer to city rates and generate significant new general fund revenue from hotels and short-term rentals.

Board Selects Custom Advisory Committee for Newly Independent County EMS Agency
Board chose a locally-defined advisory committee over a state-mandated EMCC model for the new county Local Emergency Medical Services Agency, including representatives from hospitals, fire, dispatch, and community members.
Why it matters: After withdrawing from the regional SEMSC cooperative, Solano County needed a new stakeholder input structure; the custom model allows representation from both city and district fire agencies that provide different levels of EMS service.

Supervisor Williams Confirms Federal Security Grants Carry No Immigration Enforcement Strings
Supervisor Williams questioned whether homeland security and emergency management grants require federal immigration enforcement participation; staff confirmed they do not violate state law.
Why it matters: With federal pressure on sanctuary jurisdictions increasing, the confirmation that CAL OES-administered grants carry no immigration enforcement conditions protects Solano County's compliance with California law.

Fertilizer Company Challenges County PFAS Study Methods on Biosolids
Lystek International's general manager supported the biosolids report but warned the attached PFAS study inappropriately singles out biosolids as a major source of those substances.
Why it matters: The debate over PFAS in biosolids could affect agricultural practices and land application policies in Solano County's farming communities.

Probation Department Showcases Rehabilitation Mission While Mourning Lost Colleague
Board recognized Probation Services Week with staff presentations on juvenile justice programs, family engagement, and fiscal operations, while honoring a recently deceased 20-year veteran.
Why it matters: With ~100 officers, 50 juvenile correctional counselors, and support staff, the department emphasized rehabilitation bridges — from midnight basketball to FaceTime family visits — and revealed the emotional cost of 24/7 detention work.

Solano County Elevates 707 Week From City Event to Countywide Celebration
Board unanimously adopted a resolution proclaiming July 7-13 as 707 Week, celebrating Solano County's culture, businesses, and community identity across all seven cities.
Why it matters: The 2025 inaugural event engaged 1,800 attendees and 73 vendors; this countywide resolution scales it up with SF Bay Ferry partnerships, job fairs, and cultural events aimed at economic activation.
