About us
We're proud of our 200-year heritage. And today, Vallejo continues to be a friendly, active waterfront community that attracts innovative and hardworking people and businesses. This is reflected in Vallejo being ranked the hottest real estate market in the United States for the past twelve months. The City of Vallejo's story begins in 1844 when General Mariano G. Vallejo saw the promise of the area. Named after him and twice the site of the state capitol in the 1850s, Vallejo grew into an important shipping and naval center. Legend has it that Mare Island got its name after Gen. Vallejo drove a herd of horses across the Carquinez Strait. Established in 1854, Mare Island Naval Shipyard was the West Coast's first shipyard. Decommissioned in 1996, Mare Island is now home to more than 100 businesses and has become an industrial, commercial and residential engine for the Bay Area. A strong economy and affordable housing have meant new prosperity for Vallejo, as businesses and residents come to the city. Some are attracted by the beautifully restored Victorian homes and business fronts; others by the newer homes in the Northgate and Hiddenbrooke developments. The city recently earned Main Street designation, and as a result our downtown area has benefited from on-site training in effective commercial district revitalization, technical assistance, consulting services, networking activities, and site assessments from California Main Street. Waterfront and Mare Island redevelopment have become a community effort, with input from residents helping shape the future of what will become the most important economic generators for the city. The city's Ferry Terminal and ferry services have served as a model for the rest of the Bay Area, helping make Vallejo a transportation and commuter hub for the North Bay with over 1 million riders annually. Six Flags Marine World, restaurants and the Downtown Farmer's Market help make Vallejo the vibrant community it is today.

Hello Vallejo! You might have heard that our waterfront has some special visitors! As the National Park Service conducts work on the Hyde Street Pier in San Francisco, several historic ships will be calling Mare Island home for the next several years. Two of these storied vessels have already arrived: the C.A. Thayer this past Friday, and the Eppleton Hall arrived on Tuesday. More ships are expected in the weeks ahead, depending on weather, tides, and schedules from the National Park Service. These ships bring a touch of history to our shores, and we’ll keep you informed about their arrivals. You might also notice some fresh changes to the Weekly. Our new Public Information Officer, Robert Briseño, has been working on refining its style and content to make it more engaging and community focused. Your feedback on these updates is welcomed as we strive to create something even more meaningful for you, our dedicated readers. The City Council and staff will be holding a second budget workshop this Saturday, April 12th, at 10 AM in the Vallejo Room at the JFK Library downtown. We had engaging discussions at the first workshop, and I hope we can carry that same enthusiasm forward. Everyone is welcome to participate, whether you join us in person or online. It’s a chance to shape the future of Vallejo together. At this week’s City Council meeting, two significant items were addressed: Increased Police Presence: With Vallejo PD facing critical staffing shortages, the City Council voted to support $11 million in funding for an agreement through which Solano County Sheriff’s Office deputies would provide policing services in Vallejo for a limited period of time. This partnership would enhance safety and security for residents, visitors, and businesses while we work to address long-term staffing needs within our own department. The agreement between the City and the County still needs to be negotiated and approved by both agencies. Mare Island Bridge Maintenance Project: This essential artery, connecting the island to the rest of the city, is receiving over $25 million in funding through a combination of city contributions, grants, and Measure P funds. Not only will this ensure the bridge remains a reliable route for the community, but it will also support boat traffic on the Napa River. As the project progresses, we’ll provide updates to keep you informed about any potential impacts on travel. This investment secures the bridge’s future for years to come. I hope to see many of you at the budget workshop this Saturday or out in the community. Let’s continue working together to make Vallejo the best it can be! With appreciation, Andrew Murray Vallejo City Manager https://lnkd.in/gzhcpBVf

Local Youth Visit our Nations Capitol with help from the city and school district 7 Member Vallejo Youth Delegation from Vallejo City Unified School District returns from a Transformative Trip to Washington, D.C. where they engaged in a series of impactful experiences designed to expand their civic engagement, leadership skills, and professional networks. Among the delegation were two VCUSD Student Trustees, as well as student leaders, including Willie B. Adkins Scholars, a Senior Class President, and members of SER Latino. This diverse group represented not only their schools but also the City of Vallejo, which co-sponsored the trip alongside VCUSD. The group was able to explore D.C. Landmarks and Museums, attend the National League of Cities (NLC) Conference, visiting Howard University, and meet with Congressman John Garamendi. “This trip was about more than just sightseeing,” said VCUSD representative Cherita Dilley in a press release. “It was about investing in our youth, empowering them to lead, and exposing them to opportunities that will shape their futures.”
