Republican Hoover concedes Sacramento-area Assembly seat to Democratic challenger

Assemblymember Josh Hoover, R-Folsom, on Tuesday conceded to his Democratic challenger Amy Slavensky in the race for a Sacramento County statehouse seat. Hoover had declined to concede Friday after Slavensky declared victory for the 7th Assembly District. His concession came after Sacramento County released its latest vote totals. Slavensky had 53.2% of the vote as of Tuesday afternoon. “I just called my opponent to congratulate her on her victory,” Hoover said on X. “While there are still many ballots left to count, our team no longer sees a viable path to closing the gap like we did when we flipped this seat in 2022.” Hoover said it has been the “honor of a lifetime” to serve the area in district — which includes Folsom, Fair Oaks and Rancho Cordova — in the Assembly. The seat was one Democrats were eager to wrestle back. Slavensky will be part of what is expected to be a widening Democratic supermajority in the Legislature. She has worked 40 years in California public schools as a teacher, principal and superintendent, according to her campaign website. She said her campaign knocked on over 16,700 doors, engaged 400 volunteers and sent 150,000 texts. “I thank the hundreds

Rocklin approves 281 apartments despite parking concerns. Here's what changed

A divided Rocklin City Council approved a 281-unit affordable housing project Tuesday, capping a contentious review process marked by neighborhood opposition, parking disputes and concerns about the city's limited authority under state housing laws. The council voted 3-2 to approve the Midas Apartments, with Mayor Bass and Councilmember Ken Broadway opposed. The approval included several changes to the development plan, including a restriction preventing non-emergency vehicles from exiting the property onto Midas Avenue. The project includes 278 affordable apartments for households earning between 30% and 70% of the area median income, along with three manager units. Parking remained one of the biggest concerns throughout the review process. Under Rocklin’s parking standards, the development would normally require 578 spaces. The approved plan instead provides 401, with adjustments permitted as long as the total remains at least 397. The developer previously added 25 parking spaces after an August council meeting by reducing some planned landscaping. Why the city cannot require more parking The project is located about 0.39 miles from the Rocklin Amtrak station. Under Assembly Bill 2097, which took effect in 2023, cities generally cannot require minimum parking for qualifying developments within a half-mile of certain public transit stops. Although the

Mediterranean food truck owner opens restaurant in Sacramento-area shopping plaza

A Mediterranean and Middle Eastern food truck serving authentic shawarma and gyros has opened its first restaurant in Sacramento’s Arden Fair. Jeeroz Shawarma and Grill, 1735 Arden Way, opened in Arden Fair’s Market Square retail center on Sunday, Nov. 8. The food truck, known as Jeeroz Mediterranean Cuisine, has served the Sacramento area for three years. The Mediterranean restaurant operates inside an 2,400-square-foot restaurant space. Market Square at Arden Fair is anchored by Barnes & Noble. The food is all halal, meaning its meat preparation is aligned with Muslim dietary beliefs. Jeeroz specializes in wraps and plates served with a side of fries. Its most popular dishes are its chicken shawarma, chicken gyro and falafel wrap, according to Yelp. The Jeeroz food truck has been spotted in front of the CALPERS building on 400 Q St. in downtown Sacramento and at local events. In the fall, it appeared at the Folsom Mosque, Elk Grove’s Diversity Festival, and the Rocklin Community Farmers Market, according to its food truck schedule. The new brick and mortar location is the site of the former Dos Coyotes Border Cafe, which reopened in Market Square in 2022 after a temporary closure during the COVID-19 pandemic. Jeeroz
