What City of Clovis does

The City of Clovis is a municipal government entity incorporated in 1912 and operating under a Council-Manager form of government in Fresno County, California. It delivers comprehensive public services to its residents, businesses, and visitors through dedicated departments including Police, Fire, Public Utilities (water, wastewater, solid waste), Planning and Development, Finance, Recreation, Transit, Senior Services, and Animal Services. The city employs between 251 and 500 people and is led by City Manager Andrew Haussler, Assistant City Manager Paul Armendariz (effective June 2025), and Mayor Vong Mouanoutoua. A new Fire Chief was announced in June 2026.

Revenue is generated through property taxes, a Transient Occupancy Tax on hotels, annual business licenses, utility user fees, planning and building permit fees, and fines and fees. Major revenue anchors include the city's hotel base (12+ branded properties including Hilton, Marriott, IHG, and Wyndham flags), the residential and commercial property tax base, and enterprise utility billing. Notable programs include SB 1383-compliant organics recycling, edible food recovery partnerships, and affordable housing delivery through the Housing Trust Fund seeded with $1,000,000.

The technology stack centers on a Revize-powered government website integrating GIS mapping (parks and trails), online utility billing and business licensing, mobile applications (Clovis Transit App and Clovis Police App), and the Community Crime Map. Third-party integrations include RunSignUp (events), PlanetBids (procurement), LoopNet (commercial property listings), and GovernmentJobs (recruitment). The city has been recognized as one of the Top 100 Best Places to Live in the U.S. in 2026.
