This week in Milpitas, ongoing concerns remain around the safety and conditions at Hillview Court, a 134-unit permanent supportive housing complex for formerly homeless residents, where multiple deaths have been reported and police calls for service have increased. This issue continues to draw attention from local officials and community members. Additionally, while the Santa Clara County Behavioral Health Services Department faces a significant $100 million budget deficit for fiscal year 2026–27 due to federal and state funding cuts and rising costs, this county-level financial challenge impacts mental health services available to Milpitas residents. Key points: - Hillview Court supportive housing complex remains a critical focus due to safety incidents and resident deaths. - Countywide mental health services face a $100 million shortfall, affecting service delivery in Milpitas. - Recent Milpitas city council and county meetings have discussed these ongoing challenges without new local agenda items this week. What to watch: Future Milpitas city council discussions or county actions addressing Hillview Court safety improvements and mental health funding solutions.
