| The City of Solana Beach bids a heartfelt farewell to Dan “Dano” Goldberg, our City Engineer and Deputy Director, as he retires after 23.5 years of dedicated service to the community. In recognition of his lasting contributions, City Council, City staff, and the Engineering team presented Dan with a Proclamation honoring his exemplary service at last week's Special City Council meeting.
Throughout his career with the City, Dan played a key role in shaping the physical and environmental landscape of Solana Beach. By leading many of the City’s major Capital Improvement Projects, his impact can be seen across nearly every corner of the community. Dan helped transform Fletcher Cove and La Colonia Park into the vibrant community spaces they are today and improved how residents and visitors move through the City through projects such as the Coastal Rail Trail, pedestrian bridges, Highway 101 Streetscape, corridor improvements, and the Safe Routes to School Study. He also led critical infrastructure efforts, including stormwater management, street and utility improvements, and numerous other projects that continue to serve Solana Beach every day.
Beyond his professional accomplishments, Dan was known for his kindness, intelligence, strong work ethic, and deep institutional knowledge built over more than two decades of service. His personal passion for biking was evident through his work with the local BikeWalkSolana organization and his continued advocacy for bicycle safety and infrastructure. Dan was also an active participant in the American Public Works Association, where he contributed to committees and helped mentor future public works and engineering professionals.
Dan leaves behind a lasting legacy of meaningful improvements that have made Solana Beach a better place to live, work, and visit. Thank you, Dan, for your service. Solana Beach is better because of you. |
