National Night Out
Most Tri-Valley residents still have time to register their neighborhoods for next month’s 43rd National Night Out, an annual event that aims to strengthen police-community relations through block parties visited by officers.
Neighborhoods are encouraged to register for the Aug. 4 event through the National Night Out organization at natw.org/registration. To receive a visit from their police departments, each neighborhood must register with their respective city.
While the Pleasanton Police Department has not announced a deadline, registration typically closes in late July so make sure to register soon. Livermore already closed its registration on July 7.
San Ramon will be closing its National Night out registration on Monday (July 20) and Danville will be closing registration the following day (July 21). Dublin will close its registration next Friday (July 24).
Highway 84 work
As Caltrans continues its work on replacing the Arroyo de la Laguna Bridge, cyclists and pedestrians are reminded that a daytime shuttle is available for them to use in order to safely cross the bridge during construction.
According to the transportation agency, the project aims to replace the 87-year-old bridge with a modern one that features a wider, safer and more accessible roadway. Construction began in May.
The shuttle, which began its services on June 15, runs from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. every day until November. Caltrans will also continue its overnight closures between Main Street and Pleasanton Sunol Road in Sunol. Those overnight closures are scheduled between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m.
Caltrans said the overnight closures will last approximately four months.
Mayors Summit
Registration is now open for residents and other community members to attend this year’s 2026 Tri-Valley Mayors Summit, which will be held at the Garre Vineyard & Winery in Livermore on July 30.
Presented by the Livermore Valley Chamber of Commerce, this annual event brings together all five of the Tri-Valley mayors for a “dynamic conversation about the opportunities and challenges shaping the Tri‑Valley’s future”.
“The Summit highlights the strong partnership among all five chambers as we work collectively to support business vitality, innovation, and regional collaboration,” the event description states.
To attend, register at livermorechamber.org.
DUSD candidate info night
Dublin residents interested in serving on the Dublin Unified School District Board of Trustees are invited to attend a Candidates’ Night event next Thursday (July 23) at the DUSD boardroom, located at 7471 Larkdale Ave.
The upcoming informational night will offer residents who live in trustee areas 2,3, or 5 — the three trustee seats that will be open this November — an overview of the role and responsibilities that come with being a trustee, according to a DUSD press release. Prospective candidates will also have a chance to ask questions and receive additional information as they consider running for one of the three seats.
No reservation is required to attend the event.
