This week has brought a deluge of rain which is great for reservoirs and plant life but has anyone encountered fallen trees or lost power? My neighbor said he heard large tree branches falling early mornings and I heard plenty of thunder and brownouts but so far it hasn’t been too bad for me thankfully.

Is anyone encountering more unpleasant things in Walnut Creek due to the increased growth?
A reader writes:
Has anyone complained about the significant rise in vagrancy in downtown WC – especially around the S California, Mt Diablo Blvd down to Newell block? The council seems unprepared to acknowledge or address this and it is getting out of hand, with homeless taking their dogs into restaurants and one recently filling up a huge garbage bag of ice from the dispenser in the Habit while paying customers stood waiting? It is impacting the lifestyle we residents pay top dollar for when choosing WC as the town to buy property and raise families. If I wanted to live with homeless we would have bought somewhere in downtown SF . . .

SafeAmerica Credit Union recently opened in the Orchards shopping center in Walnut Creek.
From their website:
SafeAmerica Credit Union is a non-profit financial cooperative, owned and operated by its members. Credit unions are not for profit organizations, unlike banks, which are in the business of making money for their shareholders. Membership entitles you to share as a “financial partner.” Rather than paying stockholders, credit unions return earnings to members in the form of higher dividends, lower loan rates and reduced transactional fees. This means you can enjoy low cost loans and higher yields on savings and investment options. This is what distinguishes the Credit Union from other financial institutions.
Dojo Ramen Bar is “coming soon” to Sunvalley shopping center in Concord, right next to the Round 1 Bowling & Amusement center on the lower level.
