Then there's this: A scooter near the Memorial Beach Veterinary Hospital on Healdsburg Avenue was stopped for speeding. The driver was cited for driving on a suspended license, violating probation, lacking proof of insurance and driving without a license. More Police News ...

Both Wendy Cline, the facilities director, and chief executive officer Jennifer Weiss were excited by the prospect of the remodel. “Our amazing team is working quickly to bring this new incredible state-of-the-art clubhouse to our deserving kids and community,” Cline said. “This marks a significant step toward making our long-held dream a reality, creating a space where kids can thrive.”

While all the nominated plants are found in the area, Healdsburg Garden Club did limit its list to native plants, though some are widely found outside Healdsburg’s city limits. The proposal included four flowers: the Douglas iris, the yellow mariposa lily, scarlet fritillary and blue-eyed grass, the once ubiquitous California native grape, and the familiar oak trees of the region.

Healdsburg is full of food secrets. Someone knows who has the best mulberries (the word on the street is Preston and Millbrook Farms). Someone else swears by the broccoli at Noble Goat. There’s a bee person everyone keeps telling me I have to meet—and a seed guy, too.

Needless to say, friends, family members and community members who know my child were devastated and mortified by the horrible choice my child made."

Healdsburg High's graduation was last Friday, but this coming week the 'celebration' won't let up - the Healdsburg Jazz Festival, Vamos al Tianguis, and the No Kings march, Saturday noon at the roundabout.

The Healdsburg Jazz Festival seems as if it must be modeled after a film festival, with multiple venues offering different artists throughout the day.

The Town of Windsor is requesting Federal Railroad Administration approval to implement “quiet zones” as the trains approach the station.
