A local caterer provided lunch and afternoon tours of local neighborhoods and subdivisions along with the Industrial Park were conducted, followed by an account of the city's plans for the community. Incorporated in 1993, the City's business and construction growth is progressing rapidly. The industrial park at Ashby and Pine Grove Avenue is rapidly adding new occupants. The construction of the facility for Chris King Precision Components, a precision machining, anodizing company has been completed at the park and two firms, Risse Racing, a specialty bicycle manufacturer from Sunnyvale, and National Sausage, are scheduled to begin construction this summer. Phase II of the development of the Industrial Park will begin soon, including a 175 acre expansion.
Plans are in the progress for developing tentative maps, grading plans, and site plans.
The center will be staffed by the Private Industry Council and the Employment Development Department. Although the arrival of Knauf brought protests from those who believe the company would bring with it air quality problems and water pollution. But this was thoroughly researched. I certainly don't want anything detrimental moving o my community either. Knauf has a good reputation, low employee turnover, they pay well, and donate extensively to the community.
