On July 6 th the Lompoc City Council considered the potential formation of a nonprofit corporation to be managed by the city. This idea originated on March 19, 2019; a motion for the staff to “return at a future date with information on the legal costs of forming a California nonprofit organization to fund City projects” passed on a 4-1 vote (Councilmember Victor Vega voted no).
According to the staff report, the purpose of this nonprofit would be to “create an entity that could apply for grants from non-governmental organizations, and to make it easier for individuals and entities to donate money for city purposes by allowing them to donate to tax-exempt organization.”

A plan adopted by the county and endorsed by the city of Lompoc is to locate more services for the homeless coming from both the Lompoc and Santa Ynez valleys, and who knows where else within the Lompoc area. This seems like a plan that is likely to increase the number of low-income residents.
The condition of city-maintained residential streets is deplorable. According to city staff, residential streets have a “poor” rating. The street where I live has some severe alligator cracking, aged patching of water utility leak repairs, rutting and depressions caused by heavy trucks, and loss of aggregate from the road surface.
