How City Mayors Outside Fairfield Help Small Business
Here Is How City Mayors Outside Fairfield Help Small Businesses.
While they may have larger budgets than any Solano County mayors from cities like Vallejo, Fairfield or Vacaville, it's interesting to see how the mayors help small businesses.

Better To Buy Or Rent Your Fairfield Home? In Today's Market Consider These Options.
Is it better to buy or rent your Fairfield home? Today's Fairfield real estate market is different from earlier years. Karen Rodgers, a local Fairfield real estate agent believes today's low interest rates, and low Solano County real estate prices won't continue much longer.
Here's another perspective:

Cops Close Fairfield Pot Shop Operating Behind Papered Windows
Cops Close Fairfield Pot Shop Operating Behind Papered Windows
Fairfield police officers locates the Fairfield pot store. The Fairfield pot shop’s owner, appears to be Michelle Nix from Georgetown, California - north of Placerville.
Fairfield police would not elaborate about where the Fairfield marijuana store's commercial space was located. The illegal pot shop was behind an unmarked Fairfield storefront. Further suspicion came from the fact that there were bars on the Fairfield pot shop doors and windows, plus paper covering the windows, Fairfield cops said.
Check upcoming details in central Solano County's newspaper. Learn more about the Fairfield pot shop at Daily Republic (password required). Because of the lack of legal Solano County pot shops, Solano marijuana buyers often shop in Berkeley medical marijuana pot shops, or go further south for Oakland pot shops.

City Stole Gateway From West Texas St?
Even the unofficial name for the main gateway into the non completed central Fairfield redevelopment project was hijacked. Fairfield Planning appears to have also have copied "Fairfield Gateway" used to describe West Texas Street. Attempts to change the name for West Texas Street to a name less confusing with North Texas Street were turned down. This is despite the fact that GPS often directs people to North Texas Street when they really want the city's Fairfield Gateway to downtown.
The street surrounding Solano Mall took the word "Gateway". The "Gateway" term per the trademark people at Fairfield's Invention Springboard, does not appear to be similar enough to warrant forcing the city to change the name.
This is another political use for hurting central Fairfield, while helping the new businesses surrounding Solano Mall.
See today's write up titled "How st name Fairfield chose for Business Center dr causes interesting problems".

How st name Fairfield chose for Business Center dr may cause confusiion.
Is big Fairfield City Hall picking on small businesses in Fairfield? There is an interesting twisted way Fairfield uses new city street names to help their businesses friends. By helping some business friends, it's hurting others in twisted ways. The methods the city uses can be subtle or not even realized by the common Fairfield voter.
This time the drama was about how Fairfield picks street names to perhaps help their commercial real estate developer buddies. Fairfield's reasonably new Business Center roadway could have received a different street name. Did Fairfield planning forget that the term "Business Center" is too similar to the name used for the professional office building on the main Fairfield gateway into downtown?
Business Center drive is too similar to California Business Center™. It's a political battle over key word terms.
California Business Center™ mentioned the potential confusion many times to Fairfield Planning, but nothing changed. People have agreed the Business Center drive could change its name from "Business Center" to "Fairfield Business Avenue". But this would be too disruptive for Business Center street's tenants. The US trademark office won't act unless a suit is filed.
This is only one of many examples used by Fairfield Planning to confuse or divert business away from California Business Center™. The business center on the main Fairfield gateway into downtown operates Solano Business Incubator designed to help new and growing small businesses. Small businesses are expected to create most of the new jobs coming to Solano County, barring further city interference.
"Business Center" is clearly not in the center of Fairfield that the city promised to further improve. Instead the planning strategy is to divert attention from the central business district to Fairfield's other "Business Center".
If one can't quite remember the name for "California Business Center" but remembers "business center" and knows they are in fairfield, one might google it. As there are many Fairfield townships in the world, they might add "California" to the search. But googling, "Fairfield" and "business center" and "California" will largely direct people to Business Center dr instead. Just another aspect to consider. What came up today was TheRealPlaces.com and many other sites along with CaliforniaBusinessCenter.com, etc.
There are many other examples for how Unfair Fairfield City Hall used "Business Center" to help friends and fight their friend's business competitors. Guess why voters can't vote for who gets onto the Fairfield Planning Commission? Planners are very sophisticated in the art of planning and helping their buddies. Planning is a sophisticated art that has lots of power, and is to explain for most of Fairfield's crime and other problems today.
North Connector will link into Business Center drive. The other confusion factor should be solved by Dec 2010 or the next month or so. Are planners indirectly using the money that was to improve the link from highway I-80 to downtown Fairfield to instead help their buddies on Business Center drive?
Do Fairfield planners want Business Center dr to link with Suisun Valley rd, Suisun parkway, and Mangels blvd? More details at http://www.dailyrepublic.com/ (password required).
Another example of street name swapping is found in this FixFairfield blog titled "City Stole Gateway From West Texas St?" This is another political use for hurting central Fairfield, while helping the new businesses surrounding Solano Mall.
Look more at the pattern of Fairfield City Council pushing its interests against certain parties, than at just the use of street names. Then one will get a wider perspective of where Fairfield city hall's real alliances are.

Save Fairfield Garbage Fees Thru Recycle Program
Many Fairfield Citizens Don't Know They Save Garbage Fees Thru Signing Up With Solano Garbage's Recycle Program.
For example Solano Business Incubator researched that 90% of their waste was paper and cardboard. So they reduced Solano Garbage pickups for regular garbage. They are only charged for regular garbage. This saved them lots of money, which is intern lets Solano Business Incubator offer very low prices for small Solano businesses headquartered in the professional office building complex.
Solano Business Incubator discussed the matter at the Fairfield City Council session. Solano Garbage's contact with Fairfield is up for renewal in Nov 2012.

Cordelia Angry At Proposed Apartment Construction In Their Neighborhood
New Storm Brewing About Proposed Cordelia Apartment Construction.
Nearly 40 disgruntled Cordelia residents gathered last week at the Cordelia library to discuss the details of a proposed Cordelia development that would put a whopping 324 Cordelia apartment units along Red Top Road.
For the development proposal to get the go-ahead, the Fairfield City Council would need to vote to amend Fairfield's General Plan and change current Fairfield zoning.
As Fairfield City Hall promised to upgrade the main gateway into Fairfield via West Texas Street, Fairfield City Council is running out of locations for placing new apartment buildings.
More at the Fairfield newspaper www.DailyRepublic.com, and the Save Cordelia site www.SaveCordelia.com.

Fairfield Should Rank High For IQ. Santa Rosa Ranks 39th. Vallejo Places 127th.
Fairfield has one of the highest number of inventions per person in the country. It seems this fact was not properly used in the IQ index.
Let's hope Fairfield will be smart enough to fix its problems.

Fairfield Opens Modern Pool, While Benicia May Close Their Pool
Benicia is looking at the possibility of having to close their Olympic sized pool. This comes soon after Fairfield City Council opened the super modern indoor-outdoor pool in Allan Witt Park on West Texas Street.
