Changes to City Hall Complex??? Get Involved

Here is another chance to get involved with your community, voice your opinion and be heard.

The City of Citrus Heights received an application for a project which would result in changes to the current City Hall grounds. The initial project submitted in July 2013 involved demolishing all of the existing buildings on the civic center campus, except for the police services building. The July plans showed a proposed new City Hall building, and a new three-story medical office building at the corner of Greenback Lane and Fountain Square Drive. In August 2013, a community workshop was held where a variety of input was given by the community.

Due to community input received in August, significant changes have already been made to the proposed project. The medical office building is still located in the same general vicinity, near the corner of Fountain Square Drive and Greenback Lane and City Hall has been removed from the project site and is anticipated to be constructed at a new location.

The City will be hosting a community meeting on January 15, 2014, in the Citrus Heights Community Center (6300 Fountain Square Drive, next to Sam's Club). This meeting will provide updated information on BOTH the proposed new medical office building and the proposed new City Hall.

Neighbors Sharing a Meal

posted by Sandra Benward, written & photographs by Luke Otterstad - Sunrise Ranch Neighborhood, Citrus Heights, California AREA 6    
                           
                        Christmas Potluck
Food Drive Unites Neighbors
 
Neighbors were greeted with a warmly decorated room filled with the aroma of turkey, ham, pie, and more, as Sunrise Ranch Neighborhood kicked off a neighborhood potluck dinner and food drive, Thursday night.

"I think we had a good time", said Doyle Champlain, president of Citrus Heights' Neighborhood Area 6. "I was pleased with the results, meeting some brand new folks, and getting good food donations for the church food closet."

 
 
 

A spirit of giving was also in the air as guests were offered a free bouquet of flowers, and two raffle winners each won a gift bag of Christmas sweets. The local food closet, run by the Twin Oaks Avenue Baptist Church -where the potluck was hosted- also received generous donations to help feed those in need.

Events like this are planned and discussed at the monthly meetings of Area 6 residents, as part of a way to bring the community together, solve problems, and make suggestions to the city for improvement.

Area 6 residents and anyone else interested are invited to attend the neighborhood's meetings every 4th Tuesday at 7 p.m., resuming 28 January at 7690 Twin Oaks Ave, Citrus Heights, California (corner of Twin Oaks Ave and Mariposa Ave)
