May 2011 - Cloverdale
May 2011 Thank you to our April 2011 After Hours Mixer Host Cloverdale KOA Camping Resort & Deanna Starr Milano Winery Pamela Mendala invited us all out to the Cloverdale KOA for a delightful mixer. It had been cloudy all day and the sun broke through as we arrived and made the evening all the more warm and inviting. If you haven‟t been out to the KOA you are missing one of the great vacation spots in Sonoma County, especially right now while the hills are so green and flocked with wildflowers. It‟s not all tent camping either. There are log cabins around the fishing lake so you can rough it in style! There‟s also a well stocked store, fishing, mini-golf, swimming, hiking, places to barbecue and a full service events facility. Photos by Neena Hanchett In the Pipeline I hope you‟ve noticed the number of new businesses that are opening in town. It is a pleasure to welcome Real Goods Solar, Andrews Sheet Metal, Ken Knight, Inc., Local Folkal, A-Team Specialty Services, Cloverdale Market and Farmyard Feed. There are more on the way, too! It is also exciting that many of the new businesses are employing several local people, so our out commute is lessening. The more people we have employed here in Cloverdale the healthier our entire economy will be. The ORT (Opportunity Response Team) for the city has been meeting regularly with potential businesses. We are hoping to help facilitate the regulatory process whether it originates from the City or another agency. If you know someone who is interested in opening a business in Cloverdale, please mention the ORT process. It really is proving to be an effective and collaborative method for processing business applications.

Business Briefs –April 2011 By Neena Hanchett Reprinted with permission from the Cloverdale Reveille • Cloverdale Chamber of Commerce Business After Hours Mixer.

Jim De Priest and La Reva Myles did a great job giving us the grand tour,” said Cloverdale resident Elissa Morrash. “I think this could really demonstrate how CPAC can help support „economic development‟ by helping to promote Cloverdale to real estate agents.
