Dogs Rule the Day

Folsom residents and mosque members sounded off on their opposition to a new dog boarding kennel proposed in a mixed-use zoning area. The kennel will be next to the mosque, currently under construction. Folsom City Council denied the appeal by vote of 4-1, in favor of the dog kennel. Eric King was the lone dissenting vote.

King, Starsky Re-Elected

After a long campaign, Eric King and Jeff Starsky were re-elected to city council. 8 candidates were running for 2 seats, which may have helped the incumbents' chances. Perhaps more importantly is the passing of Measure W and Measure A, which could signal the annexation of Folsom south of 50, and get funds needed for a Folsom Dam bypass bridge.

Parks Will Cost $3.2 Million to Finish Up

One sore spot among many residents of Folsom is that many of the parks in our neighborhoods remain unfinished. Construction mounds and chain link fences surround land that is slated for parks, yet they remain untouched. Well, Folsom Parks & Recreation is aware of the problem, and the first step to finishing these parks up is assessing how much it will cost. $3.2 Million is the magic number, and Vice Mayor Eric King plans on setting up a park renovation fund to help the city get there. More is in the Folsom Telegraph.

Every Day is Family Day in Folsom

City Council Member Eric King proposed that Monday evenings be set aside as a family night for city workers, by limiting meetings and activities to other nights of the week, freeing up Monday nights to spend with family. After a long debate, city council agreed time spent with family is important, so now, every day is family day. Not that it means anything, it just means that the city officially stands that we are all free to set aside time to spend with our families. More is in the Folsom Telegraph and the Bee.
