Just doing a basic #3 buzz all around. Thanks in advance

My vehicle was towed due to a construction company at my aparment complex needing that space on Monday morning. I did not move my vehicle on time because I did not notice the signage when I parked there two days prior. Now my car has been towed and I am being charged $680 just to take my car out on top of the $130 at the police department wants. I am losing my mind due to the fact that this is financially hard for me and I am unsure if there are any resources that can help with this type of situation. If anyone knows of any resources that can aid with financial distress in this manner, or outreach numbers that I can contact, your advice would be great.
Thank you for any guidance!

I do a lot of these sub panel stucco patches behind the electricians. It’s a simple life

I’ve been checking here and local news but don’t see anything. Does anyone know if the person is ok? I don’t need details but would love to know they’re alright

Our Daisy got out 21 Aug around 11 pm at the commons in Vacaville. Please please reach out if you have any information!

She is a tan mini labradoodle with straight/wavy hair

Last seen - On Burton drive. Between nut tree road and ulatis drive.

She is microchipped and has a pink collar on with her name on it and our information.

Just moved in to town and I'm looking for some local gaming groups. TTRPG's specifically.

I know there is a active shop in Fairfield, but I wanted to see if there were any nearby home groups looking for players. I'm happy with almost any system. Would love to meet some folks.

Thanks!

Are there any nice discreet spots to sit/talk/make-out in the Vacaville area? I don't want to go to the park as I don't want to do that with kids nearby.

I'm going to begin commuting to the city 3x-4x a week and looking for advice for commuting options. Open for thoughts suggestions, sharing your own experienced etc.

Option 1 Vallejo Ferry

Drive to the vallejo ferry parking at the garage and take the ferry round trip. Walking .5 miles to the office.

Option 2 Amtrak

Shorter drive to fairfield vacacille station and take the Amtrak Capital Corridor to Oakland Jack Longdon then catch a shorter ferry commute.

Overall im leaning towards option 2 for these reason. What do you think?

- shorter actual drive time. Can reclaim my time on the train

-Save cost. Monthly amtrak pass and cheaper oakland ferry while saving fuel cost (driving a Suv that gets 22mpg and takes 91 octane chsnge insurance to a low mileage vehicle)

- intangibles. Can work while on my commutes and potentially use part of my work day to be making my way closer to home. Less risk of vehicle getting broken into. Health wise: create routine around waking up early and walking or biking between transportation area.

It’s a long shot but if you’ve seen this cat around the Sierra Vista neighborhood lately please let me know

Hey everyone! I’m a beginner barber in the Suisun City/Fairfield area looking for a few people to give FREE haircuts to while I build my portfolio.
If you’re interested, DM me!

I’m sharing this so the Tattooed community can be aware of some publicly posted content from a local tattoo artist who works at a shop on Merchant St.

I’m intentionally leaving the artist’s name out. This is not a witch hunt or an invitation for harassment. I simply believe people should be able to make informed decisions about who they support and trust with their business.
Their business Instagram contains publicly posted racist rhetoric and racial slurs, including:

“Everyone in the entire word has no respect for These people anymore. They're just not able to merge together with any other race or any society. They're incapable of anything that would be considered civilized”

And in another thread:

“Bahahaha I just seen this tub o lard being called a FAT N**** on another dudes video”

The screenshots show the comments as they appeared publicly. I cropped out unrelated third parties and scratched out the artist’s name and profile picture.
I’m not asking anyone to contact, threaten, or harass this person. If you genuinely want to know which business I’m referring to, you can DM me privately. I’m sharing this for community awareness and letting people make their own judgment.

Last month I launched this to help Bay Area homeowners file an informal decline in value assessment. The response was overwhelming: over 2,000 people have checked their property, and dozens have filed, averaging over $3,000 in estimated annual savings.

I've now opened it up for Solano County. The county's deadline is November 30.

Checking is free and you pay a flat $29 to file. You can only file if there are savings estimated, and about 80% of checks come back with none.

The site pulls comps based on Publication 30 rules, fills out Solano's own Assessment Review Request, attaches a comparable sales worksheet, and mails it to the assessor for you. I close Solano filings on November 14 so every letter is postmarked in good time.

One thing worth knowing: Solano's informal review and its formal appeal both close on November 30, so waiting for the informal result leaves no room to appeal afterwards.

Go check if you qualify: https://saveproptax.com/

And if you'd rather not pay to automate it, feel free to use the comps from the website and file directly with the county for free. The estimates are conservative, and the county's own page is linked on the site.

This cat in my neighborhood has been coming around very frequently the past week or two, to the point that she almost never leaves my backyard now. It seems to trust me a ton, and I’m honestly considering maybe adopting it, but I’m trying to find out if maybe it belongs to someone already and just got lost. Doesn’t have a collar, can’t really tell if it’s been spayed or not. But she seems very well taken care of… Any advice is appreciated.

Hey everyone, I’m looking for some local advice on the best neighborhoods/areas to consider for buying a home.
Budget is roughly $500k–$650k, with safety being one of the biggest priorities. We’re looking for a family-friendly area(young family), ideally with a decent yard, relatively quiet surroundings, and reasonable access to jobs/amenities.
I already have some ideas but still want local opinions.
Which neighborhoods would you recommend at this price point? And equally important, which areas or specific neighborhoods would you avoid, especially because of crime, bad surroundings, or other issues that might not be obvious to someone who doesn’t know the area well?
Would really appreciate opinions from people who actually live there or know the area well.

A Vacaville resident called Mary Heiser told Jan Sramek at a town hall that he needed to work on his soft skills. That line stuck with me, so I went through the Solano County growth rules, the Suisun Expansion application and the CEQA filings to understand what she was actually objecting to. Posting what I found in case it's useful. I made a video about it too, linked at the bottom, but the substance is all here.

The rule everyone knows about

Solano County has had an orderly growth ordinance since 1984, reaffirmed by voters as recently as 2008. It requires a countywide vote before agriculturally zoned land in unincorporated areas converts to urban use. That word is doing a lot of work.

The part that gets left out

The ordinance only reaches unincorporated land. Annex a parcel into an existing city and the county rule stops applying to it. Solano County's own administrator, Bill Emlen, has said on the record that if a city successfully annexed the land, California Forever would not be required to present its plan to Solano voters.

So in late 2025 the company applied to annex roughly 22,873 acres into Suisun City. The decision would ultimately go to LAFCO, the Local Agency Formation Commission, under the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Act.

The safety valve, and why it's narrow here

Residents of an annexed area can force a protest hearing. But California Forever owns nearly all of the land in question, which makes organising objections difficult in practice. LAFCO's own deputy executive has described protest hearings as usually not a big deal, because developers either work with the property owners or already own the land.

What this doesn't mean

It does not mean review disappears. The environmental impact report is still coming, Suisun City still has to approve, revenue-sharing still has to be negotiated, and LAFCO still has to sign off. What changes is which body decides, and which electorate — if any — gets a vote.

The bit I keep coming back to

The 2024 ballot measure qualified, and was then withdrawn on 22 July 2024, one day before the county supervisors were due to vote on it. Everyone remembers that as a defeat at the polls. It wasn't. No Solano County voter has ever cast a ballot on this project, and under the current route none will.

Polling on it is contested and worth treating carefully. A January 2026 poll of 400 likely Suisun City voters, commissioned by an opposition group, found 58% opposed, rising to 65% after hearing arguments from both sides. California Forever's own countywide poll of 800 voters, run in April, found 51% support rising to 59%. Each poll favoured the side that commissioned it, which is normal and not an accusation. Neither is binding.

Where it stands

The draft EIR still hasn't been released. Suisun expects to finish annexation and EIR processing by the end of 2026, followed by a 60-day comment period. That comment period is the realistic window for public input, and it's worth knowing it's coming.

I made a documentary going through the whole sequence from 2018 onward if you want the longer version, but the above is the part I thought was most worth having on its own: https://youtu.be/NkXKp6zTGV8

Anyone else think the mega church off of 505 is a cult? All the journey coffees they have… an amphitheater… live streams… not to mention now chains of them. Anyway, quick story. I was doing a home loan for a family and we were trying to figure out how they can budget for a $3,000/month payment. Went through their finances with them and they do weekly donations of $1,600 ($6,400 a month) to the i-505 mega church… asked about it since it’s a donation and if they can cut back on that for their future home and they said that is absolutely non-negotiable and to not ask about that again….

Good morning fellow townmates.

I've lived in Vacaville since 1999, growing up in a nearby town. We have four kids, and for years the only things we knew were going on around here were the big ones. Farmer's Market, Fiesta Days, Merriment on Main. So most weekends we'd load everybody up and go do something in another town.

Stuff was happening, I just wasn't aware. My wife is on social media and would mention things to me (usually after the fact), but it was all scattered across a dozen accounts and groups. I barely use social media, so unless I happened to follow exactly the right page, I never saw any of it. There was no one place to just look and see what's going on this weekend.

So I built one: eventsinvacaville.com

It's been live since February, and it's a plain calendar of what's happening around town. Right now there are a little over 100 upcoming events on it, and about two thirds of them are free. Community events, arts and culture, live music, classes and workshops, theater, sports, fundraisers, the markets. You can browse by date or by category, and there's a form to submit anything I've missed.

I have a tech background, so this was really just a way to put it toward something I actually wanted to exist.

Six months in, it is definitely not complete. I know for a fact I'm light on Spanish-language events, and past that, I don't know what I don't know. That's mostly why I'm posting. If you run something, or you know about something that isn't on there, send it my way and I'll add it.

That's all this is. I wanted to share it in case it saves somebody else a few years of driving out of town on a weekend.

I live off Alamo near buck ave and these soliciting salespersons are genuinely so obnoxious. I never answer the door but they knock and ring the doorbell multiple times. Do they really think that knocking for 30 seconds straight will encourage someone to open the front door??? I had a no soliciting sign at my old house and it was always disregarded so I haven’t put one up at my current house but is there a way I can deter them? I’m about to remove the wiring on my doorbell 🙄
