Comment by Joan Roby-Davison on September 20, 2011 at 1:51pm: Boulder has re-opened at Brooks Landing Business Center. Stop in and check it out if you can!

Comment by Joan Roby-Davison on September 20, 2011 at 1:49pm: Permits have been obtained for the California Rollin' and Subway, with opening expected sometime this fall (sorry, I've given up on posting dates!).

The final spot is planned for a pizza shop.

Comment by Joan Roby-Davison on May 13, 2011 at 4:27pm: Photos taken at the garden at the corner of Ravenwood and Thurston Road. The dew was still sparking on one some of the leaves. I spent a few minutes picking up litter and pulling out little maple trees while waiting to meet a colleague for another project.

Comment by Joan Roby-Davison on March 17, 2011 at 5:25pm: Signs.....we've had a number of calls with concerns about neon signs, especially on Thurston Road. We will be visiting all of the stores, starting on Thurston, to let the owners know exactly what the city codes include for signs. For example, while neon signs may be allowed, flashing signs or signs with moving lights are not permitted. The "neon" outlined windows that seem popular are not currently addressed in the code, although they may be considered "attention getting". Watch for updates on proposed changes to zoning codes!

Comment by Joan Roby-Davison on January 3, 2011 at 10:01am: Here's a quick update on Thurston Road Facades. Three are in progress right now, with a slight delay due to material issues. Don Hanks has been out daily checking on the status, and taking photos of the work - watch for more photos!

Comment by Joan Roby-Davison on November 2, 2010 at 4:05pm: Take a drive down Thurston Road and you should see work in progress on the first storefront facade improvements - three businesses in the first round. Several more are in the works!
