Old Walmart Site Goes To Gas Wasting Old Car Sales Outfit

Fairfield's Old Walmart Site Will Be Converted Selling "Classical" Cars Otherwise Often Known To Be Gas Wasting Cars.

Walmart's 125,000 sq foot former store at 300 Chadbourne Road expanded to create more rivalry against smaller competitors on North Texas Street's business center. So Walmart had to give up its old site for some user.

Walmart touts themselves as selling lots of organic foods (though we see a much higher percentage of fresh organics at Trader Joe's.  At least some of Walmart's GMO foods can last months - making some shoppers feel they are buying "Frankenstein" food.

Solano Super Walmarts have otherwise been a huge success with a large percent of Solano shoppers. Walmart hurts Solano small businesses which have often been greatly impacted.

Nothing on this blog, nor links to or from it or affiliated sites like FixFairfield.Org are warranted in any way.  Expect errors.  After all Walmart is your best friend right?

Can Solano learn from Richmond economic segregation?

Next door to Solano County one may find more economic segregation?

Some say Richmond, California has the most economic segregation in the greater San Francisco Bay Area region. Richmond's low-income residents have not historically been engaged in Richmond land use policy. Richmond has oil refineries and a number of serious brownfields and Richmond toxic sites posing health and safety issues.  Wealthier Richmond residents live in certain sections, while other parts of Richmond are called slums many wealthier Richmond residents refuse even to drive through.

Japan's 2nd Big Quake Today Equates To Our 1989 Quake: Lessons To Learn

With the huge 7.1 earthquake that just hit Japan earlier today, Solano has much to learn.  Solano County earthquake preparation can learn.

After the horrific 9.0 quake on March 11, 2011, Japan seems to have withstood the 7.1 quake today better than other places would have. The 9.0 quake weakened structures, so the 7.1 could simply have topped off weak structures.

For general perspective, the San Francisco Bay Bridge was destroyed by just the smaller sized quake Japan got hours ago today.  Naturally this blog simplifies things.

Lessons are we need to improve Solano construction to withstand the big quake we are expecting.  Retrofitting is something people should seriously consider (and create more Solano jobs) while they are at it.

Solano County earthquake preparation can learn from Japan's chain of earthquake disasters.

Fairfield - Suisun Business Expo Had Big Turn Out

The 2011 Fairfield - Suisun Business Expo Was Well Attended.

Fairfield - Suisun Business Expo is a great way to network and promote your business through the Fairfield-Suisun Chamber of Commerce.

Numerous government economic development people were there like Curt Johnston from City of Fairfield, and Chuck Eason from Solano Small Business Development Center.  Fairfield mayor Harry Price was there with his wife happy as always to tell businesses why they should pick Fairfield for their business site.
