I enjoyed visiting with many of you at the State of the City Open House last week here at City Hall. Be sure to check out this year’s video and publication at AmericanCanyon.gov/StateOfTheCity.
Our team has also put together an informative project update we call a "PaperPoint Presentation.” This regularly-updated graphic tool shares the latest on what’s happening “Around Town.” Come see us at your community group and community events like Meet Me In The Street series hosted by the Chamber of Commerce.

Once a project enters a stage when they are ready for public comment, or are in active construction, they are added to the Construction & Development Project Updates page on the Virtual City Hall. The projects listed on the page can be sorted by under review, approved (but not actively being constructed) or active construction. While projects are “under review,” public comments are accepted at different stages of the process. Instructions are included on the top of the page. Visit AmericanCanyon.gov/ConstructionUpdates for the latest.

Did you know? Parking vehicles on front lawns is not allowed in American Canyon.
Keeping vehicles on paved driveway surfaces helps maintain healthy lawns and prevents neighborhood blight. To read the municipal code on lawn parking, click here: Municipal Code Section 9.04.040(A)(7).
American Canyon’s Code Enforcement Officer works closely within the community to protect public health, safety and welfare, enforcing city codes related to nuisance and land use violations. Visit the Virtual City Hall to learn more about Code Enforcement and how to request an investigation.
