The goal of this resident-led event is to get a pulse for what the community really wants to [...]
The groundbreaking for the White Rock Park renovation project took place on August 20, 2010, and there has been some amazing progress ever since. The Cordova Recreation & Park District expects the park to be complete somewhere in the latter part of the second quarter of 2011 (think May or June).
Project 680 has been chipping away at their goal to collect 680 new zipper-front hoodies for homeless students for nearly a month, and today they knocked out 10% of their goal in a single swoop. A group of residents gathered at Walmart in Rancho Cordova this morning for a “hoody raid”, and they left with 68 hooded-sweatshirts for students in the FCUSD who are documented as “homeless”. Thank you to Vice Mayor Robert McGarvey, Councilmember Linda Budge, Larry Stafford, Melody Mayer, Sheryl Longsworth, and Shannan Loveless for their participation and generosity this morning. See a video of the raid HERE.
The Folsom Cordova Unified School District Liaison for Homeless Services has informed Project 680 of a big need for hooded sweatshirts (otherwise known as “hoodies”) for the homeless students in the FCUSD. Therefore, Project 680 will be holding a hoody drive from September 27-October 27, 2010. Kids like zipper front hoodies (see photo), so that is what [...]
The Cordova Recreation and Park District broke ground on White Rock Park in Rancho Cordova on August 20, 2010. In attendance were CRPD officials, Councilmember Robert McGarvey, Supervisor Don Natoli, and various CRPD Board Members as well as architects and construction representatives.

Have you ever felt frustrated at a blight problem in the community, but done nothing to report it? Be honest. I’ve personally been in that boat many times. How do we report stuff to the City anyway? If you didn’t know, the City of Rancho Cordova has a system called “My City Hall Online” (aka [...]
Project 680 is a grassroots community effort to find practical ways to support local homeless students within the Folsom Cordova Unified School District. We dub ourselves Project “680? because in 2008 we found out there were ”680? documented homeless students in the FCUSD. That was shocking and unacceptable, so we decided to do something about [...]

Rancho Cordova and Gold River may share a zip code, but they are definitely distinct. Have a look at the graph and data and describe what you see. And while you’re at it, tell us why you live in 95670 – either in Rancho Cordova or Gold River.
Have you received a letter? My household has been mailed two so far claiming that XYZ Company will help me lower my property taxes if I send them $95.00 or $179.00. Fellow residents, may I offer some advice? Don’t waste your money. We all want to pay lower taxes, especially in a declining market, but as a tax payer you can do this for free (or at least pay someone to help you when the time is right – only if you need to).
