Placer County Economic and Demographic Profile 2010 Placer County Economic and Demographic Profile 2010 Prepared for: County of Placer Office of Economic Development 175 Fulweiler Avenue Auburn, CA 95603-4543 530/889-4016 Prepared by: 400 Capitol Mall, Suite 2500 Sacramento, CA 95814 916/491-0444 FOREWORD Foreword Placer County, one of California’s fastest growing counties and a key component of the Sacramento Region’s economy, offers many attractive features to businesses and residents including strong economic and demographic growth, a healthy business climate, developed infrastructure, and excellent quality of life. The County has benefited from expansions in its transportation infrastructure and the location of prominent businesses such as Hewlett Packard, Oracle Corporation, Ace Hardware, and PRIDE Industries. One of the County’s most noted gems, the Sierra Nevada Mountains, home of the 1960 Winter Olympics at Squaw Valley, provides abundant recreational opportunities to its residents and visitors from around the world. All of these aspects have made Placer County a desirable location to live, work, and play. Placer County has developed a number of high technology industry clusters since 2000. These include biotechnology/bioscience, hardware, medical device manufacturers, networking/system integration, and software. The software sector, in particular, has grown substantially since the early 2000’s with many small firms joining Oracle Corporation in South Placer County. Such firms include UK-based Sage Software, Abso in Roseville, and privately-held Revionics which has received national attention for its price-optimization software development. In 2008, Kodak Imaging announced the establishment of a branch software and engineering development operation in Auburn. Kodak joined other relatively new technology-based firms in the Auburn area including ioSafe, Titan Engineering, Tahoe RF Semiconductor, and Sierra Precision Optics. The Placer County Economic and Demographic Profile 2010 covers a number of topics including demographics, education, business climate, real estate, infrastructure, and quality of life. Where available, the most recent data is provided for Placer County and its incorporated cities along with 5-year and 10-year historical data points and projections. Comparisons to the Sacramento Region (El Dorado, Placer, Sacramento, Sutter, Yolo, and Yuba Counties), the core Bay Area (Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Benito, San Francisco, San Mateo, and Santa Clara Counties), and California are also made throughout the report. The Profile was prepared for the Placer County Office of Economic Development by the Center for Strategic Economic Research (CSER), formerly known as the Sacramento Regional Research Institute (SRRI). Content for the Accommodations, Recreational Activities, and Community Events, Cultural Activities, Places of Historical Interest, and Other Entertainment sections of the Quality of Life chapter and the Directory was provided by the Placer County Office of Economic Development.

  • “Budding” Educational Garden
    Esparto Middle School “Budding” Educational Garden Steven Roper June 2011 Esparto Middle School “Budding” Educational Garden A Senior Project Presented to the Landscape Architecture Program at the University of California, Davis in Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree of Bachelor’s of Science in Landscape Architecture June 10, 2011 Approved By: Claire Napawan, Senior Project Advisor, Landscape Architecture UC Davis Diane Crumley, Committee Member, Yolo County Resource Conservation District Patsy Owens, Associate Professor and Chair, Landscape Architecture UC Davis Jennifer Invanovich, Committee Member, Landscape Architecture UC Davis Abstract The Yolo County Resource Conservation District (Yolo RCD) commits to protect, improve, and sustain the natural resources of Yolo County. Resource Conservation Districts originally focused on soil and water issues, but their mission has broadened to include fish and wildlife habitat restoration, farmland preservation, and control of invasive plant and animal species. The Yolo RCD provides technical guidance, education, and on-site expertise for private landowners and growers, cities, schools, agencies, businesses, and research institutions. The purpose of my senior project is to create a conceptual design for the Esparto Middle School in Esparto, CA. My project will emphasize the importance, and the positive effects school gardens can have on our children. My goal is not only to develop a conceptual design but also create a tool that can work simultaneously with the grant writing efforts of Yolo RCD to gain funding for projects like this in the future. STEVEN ROPER I. Acknowledgments THANK YOU to my senior project committee members for their tremendous help. They were kind and patient enough to share their knowledge, time and encouragement.

  • California's Northern Gold Country: from Freeway I-80 North On
    California’s Northern Gold Country: From Freeway I-80 North on Highway 49 By Lee Foster There are still plenty of “nuggets” in the cultural stream for the modern traveler venturing into the Northern Gold Country of California along Highway 49, after leaving I-80 at Auburn and heading north. Four main experiences to search out in Nevada and Sierra Counties are history, food/wine, the arts, and seasonal natural beauty. Fall Color in Nevada City Grass Valley is a convenient base of operations for your prospecting. There are good lodgings such as the home-grown Grass Valley Courtyard Suites (not by Marriott) and the Gold Miner’s Inn (which is run by Holiday Inn Express). The day I was at the Courtyard, the owner was making waffles for me and everyone else at the complimentary cooked breakfast. As the region continues to renew itself with dining options, seek out the new craft beer and organic pizza/food haven, Three Forks Bakery & Brewing Company, in Nevada City. For a quality wine tasting experience in today’s California, without even a fee, consider Pilot Peak Winery south of Grass Valley, and sign up for info on their summer Saturday night parties. All these entities benefit from dedicated and new entrepreneurs and proprietors who contribute to make California travel a better experience today for the average consumer than it has been in the past. Gold Rush history is the unique drama that defines the region. There are two outstanding mining site tours to peruse in this northern area if you want to understand the later “hard rock” phase of the California Gold Rush.

  • Story of Water in Sacramento Is Incredibly Complex, and Constantly Evolving
    Sacramento’s Story of Water by Chris Lopez of Grow Water www.GrowWater.org Sacramento lies at the confluence of the Sacramento and American Rivers, and is the capital city of the state of California. The current population of Sacramento County is around 1.5 million who consume between 110- 270 gallons of water per person per day. Historical rainfall averages between 17 ½ - 19 inches of rain per year, which falls primarily between the months of October through April. This is a stark difference in precipitation when compared to the nearby Sierra foothills, which receive between 30-65 inches of rain per year as well as varying degrees of snowfall, which does not occur at the lower elevations of the Sacramento Valley. The Sacramento River, and its watershed, is California’s most precious resource. “The future of California is joined at the hip with the Sacramento River” says University of California geologist, Dr. Jeff Mount. The Sacramento River has always been a “river of life” and never more so than right now. Located in central northern California, the Sacramento River is the largest river system and basin in the state. The 27,000 square mile watershed includes the eastern slopes of the Coast Ranges, Mount Shasta, and the western slopes of the southernmost region of the Cascades and the northern portion of the Sierra Nevada. The Sacramento River, stretching from the Oregon border to the Bay-Delta, carries 31% of the state’s total runoff water. Primary tributaries to the Sacramento River include the Pit, McCloud, Feather, and American rivers.

  • 7.2 Transit Lines
    User Guide and Model Documentation for SACSIM19 – June 2020 Transit Lines The major fixed route transit services in the SACOG region are explicitly represented in the transit networks as “lines”, or series of stops served by a transit vehicle at a specified service frequency. Table 7-1 provides a listing of the operators included. Each line operating on a fixed (or largely fixed) route, and with a published schedule, is coded into the SACSIM transit networks. 7.2.1 Transit Service Periods SACSIM fixed-route transit considers five different service periods: • Period 1, spanning from 5:00am until 9:00am • Period 2, from 9:00am until 3:00pm • Period 3, from 3:00pm until 6:00pm • Period 4, from 6:00pm until 8:00pm • Period 5, from 8:00pm until 11:00pm By breaking up transit service into these periods, SACSIM aims to accurately represent how transit service varies throughout the day, e.g.: • Transit availability and frequency differences throughout the day • How transit is affected by changes in highway traffic congestion throughout the day 7.2.2 Transit Line Attributes Table 7-2 provides a listing of the key variables coded for each transit line. • The NAME of the line. o For lines existing in the base year, the first 4 characters refer to the operator name: . AMTR – Amtrak Capitol Corridor service . AUBT – Auburn Transit . CSUS – California State University Sacramento Hornet Shuttle . ELDO – El Dorado Transit . ETRN – E-Tran, in Elk Grove .
