Planning Commission Approves 101 North Use Permit 

The Planning Commission last week approved a Use Permit and Design Review for the 101 North Project proposed for the former gas station at 101 N. Cloverdale Blvd.  The project will feature live entertainment, food and drink in an indoor-outdoor setting. 101 N. Is expected to open in this coming spring. We welcome this new proposed business to town. 

Police Holiday Safety Tips 

The Christmas and New Year holidays are rapidly approaching, and the Cloverdale Police Department would like to provide the community with important safety tips and general information. 

Traffic Safety will be essential during this time of year as pedestrian and vehicular traffic increase due to holiday travelers.  In addition to the increase in traffic, inclement weather is likely to continue, resulting in city streets being slippery with limited visibility due to fog and rain.  Please take extra care to watch for pedestrians as you drive about Cloverdale and remember that pedestrians do have the legal right of way.  This is especially important at the intersections of Cloverdale Blvd. at Healdsburg Avenue and Cloverdale Blvd. at North Street, as children often use these crosswalks during morning hours to get to school.  The Cloverdale Police Department will do its best to enforce this, and all other traffic laws but will also be counting on the public to be mindful of the risks to drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians.  

During this time of year, the department typically sees an increase in thefts.  We ask that you secure your vehicles when unattended and remove any personal belongings of value, such as purses, wallets, and electronic devices.  Additionally, we ask that you secure your residences and property by locking doors and windows before you leave and during the nighttime hours. If you plan to celebrate the holidays with alcohol, please take preventative measures before driving and designate a sober driver for your safety and the safety of others sharing the road. 

On behalf of the City and Police department staff, we wish everyone a safe and Happy Holiday season! 

Parks Update

Crews worked to install a new manufactured restroom facility at City Plaza this week.  A large crane was used to hoist the prefabricated restroom into its final resting place on the City Plaza. The facility features two unisex restrooms, two drinking fountains and bottle filler, a hand sink, and a doggie water bowl for our four-legged friends. The City's contractor will be back after the first of the year to repour the concrete apron around the facility, then its good to go!
