San Francisco Boomers Are Moving To This Lovely Outdoorsy City Just Under An Hour From Lake Tahoe

When Bay Area baby boomers — that's anyone born between 1946 and 1964 — decide it's finally time to move away from the misty air of San Francisco, there's one spot that seems to be drawing the eye more than others. It lies over the great Sierra Nevada Mountains to the east, on the bends of the Truckee River in Washoe County, on the far northwest edge of the state of Nevada. Its name? Reno.

Placerville Council Rejects Appeal, Lets Nugent House Vinyl Upgrades Stand

Nugent House — Approximate Site of Historic-Preservation Dispute. Placerville City Council voted 5-0 to deny an appeal from preservation advocate Marilyn Gillham and uphold city approval of exterior renovations at the Nugent House, a roughly 1897 residence on Bedford Avenue that some locals know as the Christmas House. The vote closed out a dispute over whether the property's historical status should have forced the use of period-appropriate wood materials instead of the synthetic shutters, trim and fencing that have already gone up.

German cockroaches and rodent droppings at East Sacramento brunch spot. What else

Sacramento County Health Inspectors found German cockroaches and rodent droppings at one East Sacramento brunch facility. Additionally, nine eateries were cited including a country club after health inspectors found uncovered ice cream in the freezer. What do these inspections mean? While a yellow placard signals two or more major violations, these are typically corrected or mitigated during the inspection, according to the Sacramento County Retail Food Inspection Guide . A red placard, however, signals “imminent danger to public health and safety” and suspends an establishment’s health permit until violations are corrected. This could include, but is not limited to, major vermin contamination . In contrast, a green placard means a restaurant passed inspection. The county performs about 14,000 inspections annually and about 97% of establishments pass, spokesman Ken Casparis previously told The Sacramento Bee. Approximately 1% of inspections result in a closure, he said. These were the results of Sacramento County food facility inspections for Thursday, Nov. 5, through Wednesday, Nov. 11. If an inspection listed below needs clarification, business owners can email The Sacramento Bee at servicejournalists@sacbee.com .
