San Franciscan architect Fred Reimers conducted the refurbishment of the adobe property, beginning with making significant changes to ensure the building would maintain its structure as time passed. The original beams of the cottage were left and eucalyptus logs from the Patterson Ranch were used as additional support for the hand-made tiled roof. Kraftile, a more modern customized tile, replaced the cottage’s dirt floor. A new redwood door was installed and specially designed to fit into the round opening. Since the adobe’s original walls had begun to crumble, new adobe bricks were created by skilled Spanish employee Antonio archiving historical artifacts. “There is Torquenda to replace and renew the so much history and everything is interior.

Page 16 WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE March 10, 2020 City of Fremont Rent Review Ordinance The City of Fremont Rent Review Ordinance provides a review process for rent increases. The Ordinance covers all residential rental units in Fremont, including single family homes and condominiums with a few exceptions. While the rent review process is non-binding, the City believes that the rent review process will contribute to fair and equitable resolutions for both parties by providing a neutral setting for discussion. On Tuesday, February 18, 2020, the Fremont City Council approved the 2019 Rent Review Ordinance Annual Report. The report provided an update on the status of the Ordinance implementation and operation, and an evaluation of the effectiveness of the program. The Council voted to adopt an Ordinance amendment that will address some of the challenges that staff faced while administering the Ordinance in 2019. The Ordinance has been amended so that landlords who own four or less residential rental units in Fremont are exempt from the Annual Rent Review Fee. This does not exempt these landlords from the other sections of the Ordinance. To view the 2019 Annual Rent Review Ordinance Report and for more information on the Ordinance, visit at www.Fremont.gov/RentReview. Fremont Receives an A Score for Leading Climate Action

Construction on Fremont’s Temporary Housing Navigation Center Begins Construction for Fremont’s temporary Housing Navigation Center (HNC) has begun and will continue through July 2020. The HNC will repurpose approximately 56 parking spots in the rear parking lot of City Hall, 3300 Capitol Ave., to develop the temporary Housing Navigation Center. The HNC will operate for an initial three years and accommodate up to 45 unsheltered community members for up to six months while they are supported and focused on finding permanent housing. During construction, parking will be restricted within the footprint of the temporary Housing Navigation Center in addition to 10 parking spaces along the south edge of the rear City Hall parking lot, adjacent to 39180 Liberty St. Sidewalk improvements will be made as part of construction impacting pedestrian access from Liberty Street. For more information and regular construction updates visit www.Fremont.gov/HNCconstruction. The City invites community members to join us in addressing the homeless crisis and support the HNC through monetary or in-kind donations. To date, the City has received over $22,000 in donations and many in-kind contributions. The City will also host volunteer service days in late spring 2020.

Filipino food - it’s a veritable international smorgasbord of gastro- nomic delights. Anyone can attend - just pay $10 at the door for a wristband, good for unlimited samples. Originally conceived as a “Business Expo” where local business owners could network and exchange ideas, the event has evolved into a foodie’s dream. Says Ashley Strasburg, Executive Director of the Castro Valley/Eden Area Chamber of Commerce, “We’ve reinvented this event a few times. For over 30 years it was a business exchange night with maybe a few restaurants involved. More recently, people in the chamber world have been moving out of this business expo type model and doing more food and wine engagement opportunities.” Four years ago, they changed the name of the event to “Taste of Castro Valley” and focused primarily on restaurants, caterers, and home-based food businesses. But this didn’t accurately reflect the chamber’s community, which includes the Eden Area as well (San Lorenzo, Ashland, and Cherryland). So, the name was changed again to “Eden Eats.” The venue has also changed due to growth, from the Moose Lodge to Our Lady of Grace Church. The event is a chance for new businesses to see what dishes work best for big crowds. Says Strasburg, “It’s a test run for many who want to host a booth at our Fall Festival.” It’s also a way to meet potential clients. Case in point - one chamber member who attended later used one of the caterers for their own wedding. Says Strasburg, “It’s a great experience for everyone.” Three judges will vote on the best savory and sweet dishes. There is also a People’s Choice award. Says Strasburg, “People don’t think of Castro Valley or the Eden Area as a food destination. We lack curb appeal. We’re trying to change that and bring awareness to all of the great businesses in the area.” Strasburg cites a few examples, from a Filipino restaurant run by an award-winning chef with a cooking show, to Aroma Cuisine, which won the 2016 A-List Award for Best Indian Restaurant in the Bay Area. Eden Eats showcases about 20 local businesses. And while the focus is mainly on the food, there are still a few non-food businesses in attendance, such as Wedgewood Weddings, an all-in-one wedding planning service, or Spectrum Services, which offers a variety of programs for low-income families and seniors. The event is almost entirely run by chamber volunteers. So, if you are a foodie searching for underground delicacies, want to support the economy in your local unincorporated areas, or are simply looking for a fun way to spend an evening, why not check out Eden Eats?
