Adelanto meeting summaries, agendas, and minutes

Adelanto council to weigh $985,865 road rehab, roundabout contract; planning commission cancels meeting

The only decided action in Adelanto this week was the cancellation of the Planning and Parks and Recreation Commission's regular meeting, originally scheduled for August 5. The cancellation was attributed to the volume of applications under review and a lack of new complete applications. No minutes have been published for any other meeting.

Meanwhile, the City Council has published its agenda for a regular meeting on August 12, 2026, with several infrastructure contracts and a closed-session real estate negotiation on the table.

Planning Commission meeting cancelled

The Planning and Parks and Recreation Commission cancelled its August 5 regular meeting. According to the agenda notice, the cancellation is due to the volume of applications under review and a lack of new complete applications for consideration. No items were listed for that meeting.

City Council to consider infrastructure projects

The City Council will meet in open session on August 12 at 6 p.m. (teleconference details are on the agenda). The consent calendar includes three construction and funding agreements:

• **Air Expressway pavement rehabilitation** – Approval of Project Funding Agreement No. 26-1003494 with the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) for $985,865.00.
• **Bellflower Street and Mojave Drive roundabout** – Approval of a construction contract with WGJ Enterprise Inc., dba PCI, for $105,270.00.
• **Belflower & Primrose emergency water line extension** – Approval of a construction agreement with Guilherme Engineering for $147,500.00.

The council will also consider Resolution No. 26-33, which confirms the levy and collection of residential solid waste charges on the property tax roll for fiscal year 2026-2027.

These items are listed on the consent calendar, meaning they are expected to be approved in one motion unless a council member pulls an item for separate discussion. No vote tallies are available because the meeting has not yet occurred.

Closed session on real estate

Before the open session, the council will hold a closed session to discuss real property negotiations for APN 3128-20-117 with LF Future LLC. The agenda does not disclose the terms or status of the negotiation.
