Auburn Boulevard Construction Project - Business Community Coordination Meeting

Auburn Boulevard Complete Streets Revitalization Project
Business Community Coordination Meeting
Tuesday, January 17, 2012
11:00 a.m. in the Rusch Park Gymnasium
7801 Auburn Boulevard
Lunch will be provided.

(NOTE: this is a great opportunity for all residents to get involved and find out what has been done, what will be done, a chance to get your questions answered first hand and share your thoughts with city officials and the project team. Mark your calendar - it is next week.)  

For nearly a decade, the City has been working to rehabilitate the Auburn Boulevard Corridor. To date, the City has invested in significant improvements to Sylvan Corners and the development of The Boulevard Plan. The Boulevard Plan sets forth the concepts and goals for the renewal of the Auburn Boulevard Corridor and acts as a platform for the City's next investment project - the Auburn Boulevard Complete Streets Revitalization Project. This project will focus on three main categories: ADA and pedestrian accessibility, improvement of transportation functionality and aesthetic enhancements.

While the project has been under design and right-of-way acquisition for several years, funding has been secured and construction will begin in Spring 2012. In order to prepare for construction, the project team would like to invite all affected Auburn Boulevard property owners and businesses to a coordination meeting in order to discuss the project in further detail including the construction schedule, phasing of work, expected temporary impacts to businesses and detours.

In addition, the City will answer any questions you may have about the project. Lunch will be provided and we encourage representation from every affected business to establish lines of communication before construction commences. If you have any questions, please contact any member of the project team at (916) 725-2448.

Email / Internet Scams...... Help to Protect Yourself

special message from our POP Officer Alex Turcotte/Sergeant, Problem Oriented Policing Unit / City of Citrus Heights Police Dept.---- & a special thank you for the information.

One of the residents at the NA4 meeting last night brought up a question about Internet Scams and if there were any agencies tracking them. I wanted to provide this information to you so that you could pass it along to your constituents.

Email/ Internet scams can be reported directly to the Internet Crime Complaint Center at http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx  This is a collaborative effort between the FBI and the National White Collar Crime Center. You can also review recent scam information and public service announcements from this agency at the same site. There is a link on our CHPD website that will take you straight there as well, simply go to www.citrusheightspd.net and click on the “Scam Email Alert” button on the bottom left corner.

While you are on the CHPD site explore around. We are constantly adding new information and looking for ways to provide better information to the community. You can make view criminal activity in your area, file crime reports, enter traffic complaints, report suspicious activity and stay up to date on our most recent news and media releases.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Just wishing all of you.......   all my neighbors                                                                                                                                                                      a very happy and safe new year                                                                                                                                                                    Ringing in the new year with more patience, more tolerance and more compassion for each other. Maybe make this a year of learning about your city, your neighborhood, your street, your neighborhood & your own neighbors

Do you know your nighbors? Just the house's on each side of you? the house across the street from you? Why not make a special effort to have some type of gathering and invite YOUR neighbors. Get to know each other. You don't have to be best friends but be more than just a nod of the head. And then bring them all to our Neighborhood Meetings so we can get to know them too.

Another wish for this new year is I hope more of you will come out to our monthly neighborhood meetings and get more involved. We love to do more activities this year but I need your participation to make them worth while activities...........  we would like to participate more in the Red White & Blue Parade, Sunday Funday, Concerts in the Park, Campout, neighborhood picnic/ BBQs,
Neighborhood Night Out or Take Back the Night, Neighborhood Project ...........  and more.  See you in 2012

First meeting ...........

HAPPY "SAFE" NEW YEAR

This is so appropriate for the beginnng of the new year that I could not resist putting this up for all of us. Reminding each of us to not tailgate on our streets and highways--- especially the highways. With such high speeds (and many going WAYYYY over the speed limit, it is important to remember how much space you need in order for your car to stop and stop safely - without bumping into another car.

Do you know how many feet it takes to stop your car if you are going the highway speed of 65MPH???

This was taken from the "Keep Kids Alive Drive 25" website.............

Launch the pilot project for “It’s Not A Race! Create Space^®” with the cooperation of Nebraksa-based R&M Transportation, Fremont Contract Carriers, and H&M Transportation. Each of these companies carries the “It’s Not A Race! Create Space^®” message out onto roadways to encourage us all to practice safe space management (29% of all injury crashes result from poor space management.) The Nebraska Office of Highway Safety, Great West Insurance, and the Nebraska Trucking Association are all key partners in this initiative.
