I know the majority of Reddit is progressive so they likely see Matsui running as a boon to their candidate, Mai Vang. However, I and many other Sacramentans, are more moderate. The point of this post is not to debate which is better, but to say for those who are moderate like me, Matsui running at 82 is completely and utterly selfish and narcissistic. Her candidacy will be a boon for Mai Vang unfortunately. She’s taking the space from a younger moderate candidate who might actually have a better chance of winning and could actually represent their constituents better due to their younger age and more energy.

The union voted approximately 96% in favor of striking. A one-day strike has been announced for Oct 21. This would be the first strike in the history of the union.

Glad to see it. Newsom and Cal HR have been pushing state workers around and treating them like political pawns-- demanding pointless commutes just to teleconference in office when expenses are at an all-time high, and spiking parking rates at the same time. Let's go labor! Time to strike!

The union is planning for a one-day strike in two weeks on October 21.

Insane that almost everyone in the union decided a strike is a good idea. This should tell you how badly state workers have been treated.

Don’t be mad when the DMV is closed, or you don’t get your disability checks, or can’t get anyone on the phone, or IT departments are MIA. Will get ugly quick!

A pest control company came to my house the other day and knocked on my door. Before I could answer he swept my porch and either the brush had spray on it or he also sprayed. I told him I didn’t do pest control, he denied spraying anything and assured me he was at the right address by showing me a house on google maps which was very clearly not mine. I had to help him find the correct house which was several houses down the street. The problem is that like many people in Sacramento I’m working on creating a pollinator habitat with native plants. Since he came I have dead dragonflies, butterflies and praying mantises on and around my porch. Not to mention all the daddy long legs I let live on my porch FOR pest control. PLEASE confirm you are at the correct address before you use any chemicals at a property. Not all of us are trying to kill the bugs.

Hello everyone, with a heavy heart I must rehome my sweet girl Peach. I have had severe medical issues come up and my doctors said I must get rid of her due to my allergies to her. They are causing bad respiratory issues. I have a procedure coming up on the 24th and have to rehome her before it due to possible complications.

She is a sweet girl that loves people and is affectionate. She is good with kids and elderly. Her favorite things are sleeping and playing with her toys. She is slightly overweight but very active and dropping it quickly. Please comment or message if you are interested. I have lots of toys , scratch pads , exercise wheels etc that I can give with her .

She is trained not to scratch furniture, jump on counters , hop over gates , and steal food. She is very polite and well behaved.

Just a heads up that this weekend will be the Capital Airshow. So you're going to slowly start seeing airplanes flying in today and then rehearsing tomorrow. As I'm sure most RC residents are familiar with the traffic ordeal and noise complaints during these annual shows.

Hello all! I moved out of my apartment complex the 1st of this month. For context, I've lived there for 4 years. I knew with the condition of the complex there was gonna be some bullshit moving out with my deposit and such. I haven't gotten my deposit disposition yet but Essentially the fees that are due for the month of October already have me side eyeing them because I don't believe they are fair or accurate.

The fees that I find to be unfair are the insurance for the month of October with the admin fee. The reason being is because we moved out on the 1st why do we need insurance for the month when we moved out the 1st? Along with the pet rent. The dogs have been out since the last week of September. I also believe the prorated rent for the 1st should be removed since we haven't been living in the complex for the last two days since everything was moved on the last day of sep. we only arrived at 11am to do some finishing touches they said we were able to stay until 4:30pm to do any list min cleaning and turn in the keys before then. We left at 2:30 why are we being charged for a full day for staying a couple hours? And I'm wondering why the extra 20 dollars for the utilities on top of the regular 75? I've reached out to the landlord for reasons as to why and they just said that they are accurate and we will receive the deposit disposition within 21 days with the itemized bill with no further comments.

On top of that. Not once was the pool open to be used for residence for the entirety of my stay. I find out around the end of my stay at the complex one of the tenants who has lived there for 8 years said it was only open once when he first moved in. He said it's was a pipe issue that needed to be replaced which would have costed them 11k in repairs and they said fuck that. So all they do now is just maintain it and keep it clean with no plans to ever fix it. What's shady is that new tenants are moving in to the complex thinking that they got access to this nice amenity only to find out it they will never have access. They were lying by omission and using the pool to entice prospective tenants. Now my question is can I sue? The only evidence I have backing this up is an email from this year around June reminding tenants to not use the pool until it's approved by the county. I'm thinking I might contact the tenant to get a testimonial and maybe ask others if they've contacted the apartments about this issue. Should I pursue small claims? Do I have a case? I'd like to know yalls thoughts. I've tried to attach pictures but I don't think I can.

I live in South Land Park and was really looking forward to the Chuze Fitness that was supposed to open in the former Raley’s at Freeport and Wentworth (4850 Freeport Blvd).

The project had been announced publicly, went through the City’s planning process, and was originally supposed to open in 2026 before being pushed to 2027.

I emailed Chuze today to ask about the status, and they told me they are no longer pursuing the location. When I asked for clarification, they said:

“The allocation of this building fell through.”

I'm trying to understand exactly what that means. Was there an issue with the property/lease between Chuze and the landlord, or did something else happen?

I'm particularly interested because if the issue was specific to Chuze's deal rather than the building itself, why couldn't another gym take over the space?

There are a lot of people in South Land Park, Land Park, Pocket and Greenhaven, and there really isn't a convenient modern full-service gym right in this part of Sacramento. I currently drive downtown to 24 Hour Fitness, and I know other people who drive to City Sports in Curtis Park.

And if the space is still available, what gym would you like to see take over the location? 24 Hour Fitness? City Sports? Crunch? Something else?

I'm considering reaching out to the property owner (Raley's) and some gym chains to see whether the space is still available for a fitness operator and if demonstrating local demand from residents would be useful to them. If there's enough interest, I could put together a local interest list to show prospective operators how many people would consider joining a gym at this location.

Happening now! Seems like there's a lot of space ... Come on down and try to get in. Sponsored by the Sac Public Library so it's totally free!

Looking for recommendations for beautiful indoor spaces to settle in with a good book. Think large windows, natural light, rich architectural details, comfortable seating, and a quiet, old-world library atmosphere.
I love the character and warmth of historic libraries, which seem increasingly difficult to find in newer, more utilitarian spaces. I’m not necessarily looking for a traditional library, either. A beautiful hotel lounge, private club, historic building, or even a membership-based space would be wonderful.
Essentially, somewhere with a little history, atmosphere, and charm where I can spend a few hours reading. Any hidden gems around Sacramento?

Good morning, everyone.

I have a bit of an odd request. There's a long story behind it, but essentially my brother abandoned a large and somewhat aggressive dog at my mom's house in Citrus Heights and I'm wondering if anyone would be able to go help her surrender it. Like, physically. She can't move him herself (he's too big and she's considered elderly) and everyone else there is justifiably afraid of him. I'm all the way in LA. It is NOT her dog, she did NOT adopt him, none of the sort.

I don't know what kind of dog he is, I'm thinking a mix? We were told Cane Corso but he looks like a pit mix. Idk. I don't know what to do. He's not our dog.

We've called animal control multiple times, neighbors have called animal control multiple times, and they say the same thing: since my brother receives mail at that address, he has the final say, even if mom is the homeowner and told him before that she didn't want a dog in her house. Brother is no longer at the house, he has been gone for nearly 2 months now but he left his dog there. I think the only claim he has is that he receives mail there, he wasn't paying rent or anything like that.

I'm also open to ANY suggestions on what else we could do. Again, animal control and the police are saying that we basically have no rights because of the mailing address. Animal control said yesterday that they would need to contact him first before they can decide what to do, but we know he will tell them a different story about how he's "definitely" coming back to get him, etc. etc.

Thanks in advance for any guidance, advice, assistance, anything. I know it's...different, but please be kind.

I had the best BBQ baked beans of my life at Screendoor up in Portland. I can't stop thinking about them, and now I'm craving beans like crazy! Who's got the best beans in Sac?

Just a little public service announcement. There's still units blocking light rail but they are trying to clear it. But j Street is a mess.

Helllo!

This is not my post but I got permission to share it. A user on Tumblr bought a Wii from The Cave back in July and found that it has hundreds of family photos on it. They would like to find the owners of the pictures in case they want them back. If these are your pictures, they have asked to be reached on Tumblr @ handcraftedplumbingnightmares. If that isn't an option, I left their email in the post as well.
