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.”
Every county, city, town or village in the world has some sort of street or road system to allow people to move themselves and their products safely from one place to another.
It doesn’t matter if you use a horse drawn cart as they do in some areas, a gasoline/diesel-powered vehicle or an electric vehicle as some people do, you still need a road to travel on.
The city of Lompoc is no different. There are 130 miles of city-maintained streets and alleyways in Lompoc, and on April 6 the City Council discussed a five-year plan for road maintenance projects. The picture painted by the assistant public works director wasn’t pretty.
