Elk Grove, CA home owners have been battling over 2 years now, for a Big Box Ordinance. The Elk Grove City Council last week finally adopted a Big Box Ordinance for Elk Grove.This debate started two years ago when Walmart proposed a Big Box store within a neighborhood. Local home owners as well as other residents came together and demanded that a Big Box store was not appropriate for the neighborhood.Big Box stores will be appropriately located outside the perimeter of a neighborhood and homeowners are reassured that their property values and neighborhood way of life will not be hampered by Big Box Stores entering their neighborhood. All is well now, with the Big Box Ordinance. Thank you, Elk Grove City Council.Get Ready, Get Set...Elk Grove Summerfest 2007 is coming to Elk Grove Old To...

The Elk Grove, CA Promenade Shopping Mall was approved by the City Council of Elk Grove on Wednesday night. The Promenade Mall, an open air mall is set to open October 2008 and provide within the first year of opening 2,500 new jobs for Elk Grove citizens along with a sales tax revenue expected of $4 million.Now, doesn't that make more sense than building yet more homes? It's time to bring some jobs into Elk Grove. This is a good start. Next is big business...higher paying jobs. If you want a City to prosper, in my opinion you need to focus on establishing new business partners along with controlled, responsible growth. There are plenty of cities to emulate that have done just that. Elk Groveis a new City as of July 2000 and has been growing leaps and bounds. Some may say, a litttle too...

I worked at the fireworks booth today on the corner of Elk Grove Blvd. and Waterman Rd., It seems like only yesterday that these roads were fields and our town had no Starbucks. As I watched the cars and met with the people who stopped by our booth (thank you for the support!) I was filled with a sense of satisfaction. I was in my hometown! A town where people still know each other and support each other. Thank you Elk Grove for the parades, the blood drives and even the spaghetti feeds (those carbs go straight to my hips!) :) Thank you for providing fireworks at the park where we can enjoy our family and the magical light show. Have a great 4th of July!Thank you for reading my first blog! Mariaps...if you don't have your fireworks yet, we have a great booth near Jamba Juice on Elk Grov...

24 Hour Market Watch for zip codes 95624, 95758 and 95757 There were 81 transactions total with almost 42% of the activity going towards price reductions. Sellers who do not have to sell short are facing a lot of competition from those homes that are short sales where the lender and the owner are looking for a quick sale and therefore price below the market. Therefore sellers are having to lower the price in order to gain attention from potential buyers, note that 42% of activity in the Elk Grove zip codes, have gone to price reductions.
