Westminster residents are beginning to see the impact of their vote on Ballot Measure 3H, which raised sales tax by 0.4% in 2026 to fund emergency services and repave neighborhood streets. The City just launched its first repaving project using Paramedics and Pavement funding in Historic Westminster's Apple Blossom neighborhood, marking a significant milestone in the City's commitment to investing directly in neighborhood infrastructure.

Please join City Council and City Manager Jody Andrews on Tuesday, May 19 from 5:30 to 6:30 pm at Irving Street Library.  Learn how Westminster and Growing Home are addressing food insecurity in our community, resources available to residents, and how you can help a neighbor in need. The event location will be announced once finalized.

As the City and residents work together to conserve water during Drought Watch, a reminder that most lawns only need watering once a week this early in the season. As temperatures rise, please limit watering to no more than three days a week, and use the "cycle and soak" method — three 5-minute cycles with a break between.

Celebrate the completion of the Big Dry Creek Streambank Restoration Project with a community ribbon-cutting on Thursday, May 14! Trails along Big Dry Creek at City Park are now fully open. Join community members, City staff, and elected officials to mark the end of this multi‑year project and enjoy the new amenities.

A whole lot of fun is heading Westminster's way as some of our parks debut fresh improvements! Celebrate the grand opening of Aerostat Park in Downtown Westminster with ice cream, live entertainment, a bubble tower, and more on Saturday, May 30, from 10 am to 2 pm!

The City welcomes requests for programs and projects from community members to be considered for funding in the 2027 budget process. We accept requests for:

- Projects: one-time improvements to the community, such as missing sidewalk connection, trail connection, or crosswalk improvement
- Programs: an ongoing commitment to the community
- Additional resources to an existing program or project

Submit your request by Friday, May 22.

Staff will review the requests to determine the feasibility, coordination with other projects, and anticipated cost for the requests, and present information to City Council. The requests and staff recommendations will be included in the "Community Requests" section of the budget. Council's decision on these requests will be reflected in the 2027 Adopted Budget document.
