Unemployed Have Smart Alternative.


Voters Want Gov Cutbacks. Unemployed Have Smart Alternative.

Solano voters are angry at Washington candidates for the growing budget deficit. Solano county and six of its seven cities are doing poorly too (Dixon, Vacaville, Fairfield, Rio Vista, Vallejo, Benicia).

The proven solution is for the ambitious Solano professionals to look at their resume for what skills they can market directly to Solano businesses or consumers. If a company could hire and resell their services, why not take matters into one’s own hands? 

With the flood of resumes for the few openings out there, it’s probably more time and cost effective to simply start one’s business even from one’s home.  Or utilize the special program from Solano Business Incubator, at California Business Center, which offers their Solano Virtual Office™.

There are countless possibilities.  Remember studies show that businesses starting in a lackluster economy are more likely to last in the long haul. Plus you get to finally become your own boss. 

Time to fill up the big empty space on that resume. How long will tax payers won’t keep funding?

Vacaville Election Predictions

New Vacaville Election Predictions

Vacaville's election politics is focusing on bringing more good paying job openings.  Lots of support is going behind:
• Vasquez for Solano Board of Supervisers.
• Harris for Vacaville mayor.
• Hunt and Fortney for Vacaville City Council.

More on the Vacaville City Council Election:

Vacaville City Council candidates stated they want more Vacaville small businesses. Vacaville is a very nice bedroom community, and is dreaming to try compete with Fairfield and Suisun in getting more high paying Vacaville jobs. Apples for apples, Vacaville house prices might be doing better than Fairfield these days. But house buyers still have longer commutes to the Inner Bay Area than Fairfield does. Fairfield already is the Solano county government and Solano business capital.

Vacaville Election Candidates Carolyn Higgins, Michael Fortney, Curtis Hunt, Richard Flores IV, Mitch Mashburn, Manuel Hernandez, Judith Everett:
• Carolyn Higgins had similar views, and would give financial incentives to fix up and take up vacant Vacaville commercial space available for lease.
• Michael Fortney believes in small Vacaville government. Candidate Michael Fortney is into keeping taxes low for businesses. Fortney would create new Vacaville job opening through city incentives and by enhancing Vacaville’s Economic Development Department.
• Curtis Hunt would market Vacaville for its proximity to UC Davis in Yolo County. Curtis Hunt will further evaluate green technology’s potential in Vacaville industry.
• Richard Flores believes more Vacaville biotechnology is an important Vacaville business development strategy. However what about the fact that Vacaville’s Genentech is more of a manufacturing facility, with most of Genentech’s high paying Solano jobs outside Solano County? Flores wants to bring Vacaville small businesses, to balance out Vacaville big businesses.
• Mitch Mashburn says Vacaville needs to provide new Solano businesses as much information as possible. Candidate Mitch Mashburn wants to partner with Solano and Vacaville small business groups, and Vacaville trade organizations. Mitch Mashburn would work with the Vacaville union labor groups as well.
• Alex Henthorn is for developing more Vacaville higher education. The candidate Alex Henthorn wants more people to get a Vacaville Bachelors degree, or at least somewhere in Solano County’s Dixon or Fairfield… Alex Henthorn focused on redeveloping Vacaville’s infrastructure.
• Manuel Hernandez will work with Vacaville small businesses, and Vacaville large businesses. Manuel Hernandez discussed the proposed California state - Vacaville early release facility. Hernandez believes is may bring new Vacaville job openings. At least Vacaville will help take up some of the problem issues it tries forcing upon the Solano Cities of Dixon, Fairfield, and Vallejo.
• Judith Everett wants to bring more sports venues, and green Vacaville businesses. Everett is into getting Vacaville green business loans.

The accuracy level of the Vacaville Election Predictions is maybe around fifty percent. Your vote can make all the difference as it's often just a few votes that decides elections in Solano County.

Suisun Election Predictions

Today's weather forecasts report 0% chance of rain election day Tue Nov 2nd. If enough people vote, we bet Mayor Pete Sanchez will get re-elected. Suisun City Councilwoman Jane Day should also get re-elected.

It's a toss up for the 2nd council seat between Don Spering, and Mike Hudson. We're guessing Don Spering will run in two years if he doesn't make it this time. Visit SuisunVoters.Com

Accuracy level for the Suisun Election Predictions? Mayor Pete Sanchez 80%, Councilwoman Jane Day 80%. That either Don Spering or Mike Hudson will win 85%. Republicans will take over the US senate 98%.

Time To Bring Indoor Solano Plants Inside From Garden

Indoor Solano Plants Need Special Care

Autumn is upon Solano County. Winter is around the corner. Night temperatures are hitting the 40's in Solano County. Some indoor plants don't tolerate going below 50 degrees. If you're not sure what a plant can take visit your Solano nursery, of just bring them inside. 

Some tips on bringing in household plants:
• Hose down the plant and its pot the day before. Hose off the bottom as well.
• Try giving the moved plant the same amount of light as before. As this often isn't possible, do as best you can.  Plants need light and can't just be put where you want them. Solano winters have less day light hours.  A thriving plant looks nicer near the window, than sickly away from the window in your Solano home.

Indoor Solano Plants Already Indoors:
• Take them out when it's warm and hose down the leaves to get off the dust.
• Don't leave in bright light if they aren't accustomed to it.  Avoid leaf burn.
• Make sure to bring them back in before it gets cold.

Solano temperatures in Dixon and Vacaville get colder, than Benicia, Fairfield, Rio Vista, Suisun and Vallejo as the latter are near the bay.

Election Politics Discusses If Fairfield Is Solano's Business Capital. Or is it Vacaville or Vallejo?

We predict the Fairfield-Suisun region will continue to get more high paying jobs than Vacaville. Vacaville will do well with flashy stores coming along highway I-80's vacant land - but those type of businesses often pay lower salaries. Vacaville retail and restaurants usually pay less.

Vacaville's election politics is about bringing more good paying jobs. It was the same in Fairfield's elections too. But is Vacaville trying to beat Fairfield and become the business capital? Fairfield has clear advantages Vacaville can't hope to get.

Today, Vacaville City Council candidates stated they want more Vacaville small businesses. Vacaville is a very nice bedroom community, and is dreaming to try compete with Fairfield and Suisun in getting more high paying Vacaville jobs. Apples for apples, Vacaville house prices might be doing better than Fairfield these days. But house buyers still have longer commutes to the Inner Bay Area than Fairfield does. Fairfield already is the Solano county government and Solano business capital.

California Business Center did a survey a few years back. It found more people in Vacaville will come to Fairfield for business services. Fewer in Suisun and Fairfield were willing to take the hop over to Vacaville.

Studies show there aren't even enough potential tenants looking for vacant Vacaville office space for rent. They prefer renting Fairfield office space. For example California Business Center ran generic ads offering office space in Vacaville and Fairfield with just pricing and a phone number. No calls came from Vacaville, and two came from Fairfield over a several month time span in spring 2010. The office building with the most suites in Solano County happens to be California Business Center, not only because it offers the most cost affordable packages, but because it's near highways 80 and 680, and just 30 min drive to Berkeley during normal traffic.

What do the Vacaville City Council and Vacaville mayor feel about the Vacaville Office Space for Rent signs? They want to fill the vacant Vacaville office spaces for rent.

Vacaville Election Candidates Judith Everett, Carolyn Higgins, Michael Fortney, Curtis Hunt, Richard Flores, Mitch Mashburn, Manuel Hernandez:
• Judith Everett wants to bring more sports venues, and green Vacaville businesses. Everett is into getting Vacaville green business loans.
• Carolyn Higgins had similar views, and would give financial incentives to fix up and take up vacant Vacaville commercial space available for lease.
• Michael Fortney believes in small Vacaville government. Candidate Michael Fortney is into keeping taxes low for businesses. Fortney would create new Vacaville job opening through city incentives and by enhancing Vacaville’s Economic Development Department.
• Curtis Hunt would market Vacaville for its proximity to UC Davis in Yolo County. Curtis Hunt will further evaluate green technology’s potential in Vacaville industry.
• Richard Flores IV believes more Vacaville biotechnology is an important Vacaville business development strategy. However what about the fact that Vacaville’s Genentech is more of a manufacturing facility, with most of Genentech’s high paying Solano jobs outside Solano County? Flores wants to bring Vacaville small businesses, to balance out Vacaville big businesses.
• Mitch Mashburn said Vacaville needs to provide new Solano businesses as much information as possible. Candidate Mitch Mashburn wants to partner with Solano and Vacaville small business groups, and Vacaville trade organizations. Mitch Mashburn would work with the Vacaville union labor groups as well.

Hernandez believes is may bring new Vacaville job openings. At least Vacaville will help take up some of the problem issues it tries forcing upon the Solano Cities of Dixon, Fairfield, and Vallejo.

Solano Walmart Politics

Looking at the Suisun Walmart as an example. Walmart is expected to bring a whopping $500,000.00 to $800,000.00 just in taxes. Also with more people working in Walmart (about 350 new employees) more employees will shop in other Suisun stores. Plus visitors to the Suisun Walmart will also dine and shop elsewhere in Suisun.

Interesting Suisun Walmart Studies: Depending on the poll, about 75% of Suisun voters are pro Walmart. Currently Suisun loses 70% of its tax revenue when Suisun shoppers shop outside Suisun.

That's why mayor Pete Sanchez, and city councilwoman Jane Day are probably going to win. The 2nd city council seat will probably go to Don Spering or Mike Hudson. Pete, Jane, Don and Mike are all entrepreneurs - and that's what Suisun needs to create more jobs.

Solano County Election - Tue Nov 2nd

Future topics in the Solano County News can also cover Solano election predictions.

In Suisun elections, many Suisun voters are happy with how Suisun is doing despite tough economic times. If most of those who voted in past years actually vote again, many are predicting Suisun Mayor Pete Sanchez will get re-elected. Both Suisun City Council members Jane Day, and Mike Hudson also have a good chance, especially Jane Day. All the incumbents have Solano business experience.

Other topics include small businesses in Solano county, big Solano county companies, non-profit businesses in Solano County, Solano County demographics. Your input on needed topics will be appreciated.

New Solano Walmart gets an approval

Regional Water Quality Control Board voted to approve the Suisun Walmart project. More paper work is needed.

Walmart will now mitigate for some watercourse before Suisun Walmart can start construction.

Expect a 182,000-square-foot Suisun Walmart Supercenter by Walters Road Highway 12 in Suisun.

Suisun needs more tax revenue. The Fairfield Walmart by highway 12 and I-80 will close and move to Fairfield's North Texas Street.

Solano Employers Want To Hire - Easy Solution

More money is needed for job creation. Solano businesses said they will hire more people if the government is willing to pay part of their salaries. Current programs are either paying too little, or only funding people employers feel might not even show up most days for work.

For example, we discovered businesses in the Solano Business Incubator would be interested in hiring 40 employees if the government created more salary subsidies. For example some believed the amount the government is now spending for the 99 weeks unemployment package would be enough incentive for Solano employers to receive as subsidy. That is if Uncle Sam gave the unemployment compensation to the employer instead of the worker, the companies could often hire these qualified people whose unemployment had not yet run out.

Waiting from Washington, DC on this one.

Solano City Budget Cut Backs

Solano Cities Having Tough Economic Time.

How do Solano County's other city's compare with Suisun? Vallejo is bankrupt. Can Rio Vista is in big trouble. Fairfield has had to make cuts, and should not be making cuts in their police department. Luckily Suisun has a balanced budget with no budget cuts. Dixon and Benicia need help.

Suisun City Council Election

In Suisun's election Jane Day, and Michael Hudson are planning to keep Suisun on the good course Suisun has taken in our very tough times. There have been no Suisun City lay offs and Suisun stays in the black, this beats the record for other Solano County cities.

The challengers Spering, Wilson and Cain stated more city redevelopment money needs to be spent on parts of Suisun City than the beautifully redone waterfront. Both incumbents however clearly pointed out that Suisun City is actively improving other parts of Suisun as is evident with Suisun bringing in more retail to other parts of Suisun outside downtown Suisun.

The Suisun waterfront is a major draw for the city for tourism, and other local visitors.

Vacaville Saying No To Medical Marijuana

City isn't happy about legalizing marijuana in Vacaville. Today's details at Vacaville's Reporter www.TheReporter.Com. Other Solano County cities Benicia, Dixon, Fairfield, Rio Vista, Suisun, Vacaville, plus neighboring Napa aren't exactly thrilled either. Yet more and more people are buying and using what they call "legalized marijuana". The conflict continues.
