Elk Grove CA ~ Latest Happenings

Big Box OrdinanceElk Grove, CA home owners have been battling over 2 years now, for a Big Box Ordinance. The Elk Grove City Council last week finally adopted a Big Box Ordinance for Elk Grove.

This debate started two years ago when Walmart proposed a Big Box store within a neighborhood. Local home owners as well as other residents came together and demanded that a Big Box store was not appropriate for the neighborhood.

Big Box stores will be appropriately located outside the perimeter of a neighborhood and homeowners are reassured that their property values and neighborhood way of life will not be hampered by Big Box Stores entering their neighborhood. All is well now, with the Big Box Ordinance. Thank you, Elk Grove City Council.
