Summary
The lobbyist flagged wildfire/insurance bills that passed, more e-bike rules coming, and ballot propositions (especially Prop 43's two-thirds tax threshold and Prop 40/41/42) that could reshape local budgets. If the state's budget wobbles, Lafayette's does too.

Impact analysis
Prop 43 would raise the voter threshold for citizen-initiated special taxes to two-thirds; state budget volatility can translate into cuts for local programs.
Homeowners getting home-hardening help and cities gaining e-bike and records-request flexibility.
Cities could lose fee flexibility as the legislature targets impact fees, and local budgets are exposed to state revenue swings.
