Two new items of Neighborhood interest:

Break in at Western Farm Saturday Night.  Utz-  SRPD the Police Dog takes care of business.

On Saturday, April 17, 2010, at approximately 10:40 p.m., Santa Rosa Police Officers responded to Western Farms Center on West 7th Street for a silent alarm. Officers arrived and established a perimeter at which time officers saw movement inside the upstairs office area.  Shortly thereafter, officers entered the business with the assistance of a police K9, Utz. Once at the stairwell, the officer provided notification to anyone upstairs that a police K9 was going to be deployed. The suspect, Michael Iervolino, an 18 year old Santa Rosa resident, immediately complied and was taken into custody without incident. Iervolino was subsequently booked into the Sonoma County Jail for Burglary.

NW Santa Rosa to be home for all  Medical Cannabis Dispensaries

On April 19th, the City Manager approved a  2nd Medical Cannabis Dispensary Permit in NW Santa Rosa. The City of Santa Rosa that, by ordinance only allows 2 medical marijuana facilities within the City, has just approved the second facilty.  It will be located at 1061 North Dutton Ave. – right next to homes.  It is also located within 2 miles of the only other location which is also located in NW Santa Rosa.  This facility was approved in spite of many letters from residents who cited existing problems in the area due to an over concentration of services. There was also a  recent a robbery and assault at the County Approved Medical Marijuana Facility on Santa Rosa Avenue.

Dear West End Neighbors,

A brief update regarding the proposed Medical Marijuana facility on the corner of College & Cleveland. As you know, there was a Neighborhood meeting on August 5th and it was well attended by interested neighbors, property and business owners. The overwhelming sentiment was that the proposed location is not a good fit for this type of facility. At this point, the planner is finishing his report and will send it off to Jeff Kolin, City Manager. It is my understanding that there were a great number of letters received by the planner. I’ve attached his last communication and a copy of the Medical Canabis ordinance.

Thank you West End Neighbors for being so concerned about our wonderful neighborhood!
Hello Concerned Neighbors,
As of right now, I am waiting on one additional piece of information before making my recommendation and referral up to the City Manager for a decision. There is no new information regarding the status of the proposed Medical Cannabis Dispensary at 80 College Avenue.
It is inefficient for me to provide individual updates regarding the status of this project (as there are so many interested parties) so please refrain from inquiring as to the status individually.
When I send it up for a decision, I will send out a notification and when a decision has been made, I will send another notification. Please pass this on to any interested parties who were not included in the mailing list.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. Noah
