Maywood to Launch Decorative Street Banner Program with No Cost to City
The City Council approved an agreement with Community Showcase Banners LLC (an affiliate of CGI Communications/CGI Digital) to implement a decorative street banner program. This program, at no cost to the city, will utilize existing median poles to display a minimum of 25 custom-designed banners promoting community pride, local programs, businesses, and nonprofits. CGI will be responsible for design, production, and installation, with city staff assisting in outreach to local businesses for sponsorship. The city will have input on banner themes (suggested use of the new city logo), website information (including infrastructure improvements, nonprofit partnerships, and community services), and potential use of nonprofit sponsors if local business support is insufficient. The agreement is for one year with options for renewal.
Maywood Council Approves $9,850 for Ranch Camp Youth Program
The City Council approved a resolution to fund the Ranch Camp Summer 2026 program, operated by Connecting Compton, with an allocation of up to $9,850. This program aims to provide youth with enriching experiences in equine therapy, responsibility, and personal growth. The funding will be disbursed on a reimbursement basis, requiring participants to attend, complete the program, and submit documented expenses. While transportation is not directly covered, the council expressed interest in exploring options for future years. The program is capped at 10 participants to ensure manageable instruction.
Maywood Extends Moratorium on New Tobacco Retailers by 10 Months
The City Council considered an ordinance to extend the temporary urgency moratorium on new tobacco retailers and tobacco shops for an additional 10 months and 15 days. This extension is to allow staff more time to evaluate the increasing number of tobacco-related businesses, address community concerns about loitering, litter, and concentration of these businesses near residential areas and youth facilities, and to research potential zoning and operational standards. The ordinance does not affect existing businesses but aims to protect public health, safety, and welfare. Public comments included concerns about the impact of tobacco retailers and suggestions to revisit conditional use permits and investigate flavored tobacco sales.
Maywood City Council Approves 2026-2027 Operating Budget and Capital Improvement Program
The City Council adopted Resolution Number 6468, approving the fiscal year 2026-2027 operating budget and the Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The budget includes adjustments totaling $6.7 million. Key adjustments include an increase in general fund personnel expenditures by $215,000 (due to new positions and fund transfers), a $190,000 increase in non-personnel expenditures (with $150,000 allocated to community events), and a significant $6.3 million increase in capital outlay and CIP projects. Major CIP increases include funding for citywide ADA improvements, public facility ADA improvements, and addressing a funding gap for the Teen Tech Center. Total proposed expenditures are $20.2 million for the general fund and $24.1 million for special revenue funds. Several capital improvement projects were completed in the previous fiscal year, and 16 projects, including new initiatives like the Teen Tech Center and sidewalk rehabilitation, are planned for the upcoming fiscal year.
Maywood Council Extends Workers' Compensation to City Volunteers
The City Council adopted Resolution Number 6465, authorizing the city to provide workers' compensation coverage for volunteers. This is to address the growing number of volunteers participating in city events and cleanups. Currently, uninsured injured volunteers might file claims against the city for damages, which can be costly and delay treatment. By extending workers' compensation coverage, the city can better control costs and ensure timely, appropriate treatment for volunteers. The city's workers' compensation provider, SIRA, will cover volunteers at a cost lower than the current budget allocation, meaning no mid-year budget adjustments are needed. Volunteers will still be required to sign waivers and fill out forms.
