Sac Sheriffs to Secure Dam
Since the impact of a Folsom Dam failure could impact the entire Sacramento Valley, the Bureau of Reclamation has decided that the Sacramento Sheriff's Department will now be in charge of securing Folsom Dam. The cost to taxpayers - $4.8 million a year.Labels: Folsom Dam, USBOR

Old Town, New Tenants?
Some historic district residents are not happy about a couple of new neighbors they may be getting soon. A 19-unit apartment complex for people with mental illness, and a 20-person 'transitional housing' unit for the homeless, all within 5 blocks of each other. It would be the highest concentration of such housing outside of midtown.
