New City Budget Provides for
High Quality Services
The City of Vista continues to benefit from both the State and national economic climate. The current national expansion
entered its 11th year in July, becoming the longest expansion in U.S. history. While a slowdown is inevitable at some
point, the City is well positioned financially with healthy emergency reserves to better weather future fluctuations in
the nation’s economy.
The City has set its annual spending plan for Fiscal Year 2019/20, which runs from July 1 through June 30. The $83
million operating (General Fund) budget covers everyday important services, such as fire and law enforcement protection,
road and park repairs, recreation services,
and youth and senior programs. This
balanced budget keeps the focus on
protecting city investments and providing
high-quality services to Vista residents.
The Capital Improvement Budget,
which funds long-term infrastructure
projects such as street improvements,
traffic signals, sewer infrastructure,
park upgrades, and the Paseo Santa
Fe downtown improvements, will fund
almost $20 million in projects across the
city during the 2019/20 fiscal year.

Not Every Hero Wears a Cape:
Plan & Practice Your Escape
Not Every Hero Wears a Cape. Plan and Practice Your Escape is this year’s theme for National Fire Prevention
Week, October 6-12. “We are celebrating people of all ages who learn about home fire escape planning and
practice, bring that information home, and spur their families to action,” said Jeff Hahn, Vista Fire Chief.
“From students who learn about fire prevention at school, to parents who attend a community event such
as a fire station or open house, all are heroes
because they are taking steps to make their
households much safer from fire.”
A home escape plan includes working smoke
alarms on every level of the home, in every
bedroom, and near all sleeping areas. It also
includes two ways out of every room, usually a
door and a window, with a clear path to an outside
meeting place that’s a safe distance from the
home. Home escape plans should be practiced
twice a year by all members of the household.
The Vista Fire Department will host an Open
House during Fire Prevention Week on October 12.

percent from the prior year. The City’s violent crime rate is down 11 percent from 2017, while property
crimes have decreased by less than one percent.
The report includes annual crime statistics for the San Diego region from 1980 through 2018.

decreased by one percent over the same period. The property crime rate is the lowest in the 39 year
