I had the pleasure of attending the State of the City luncheon for Shasta Lake City today. Mayor Rod Lindsay addressed the attendees, and later offered a presentation about the good things happening in Shasta Lake. Actually, quite a bit of good. SLC has always been a favorite place for me. Down to earth and funky, and not much attempt made to hide that fact. The Boomtown roots still define the place. The city never made a lot from sales tax, so the current slump hasn’t hit quite so hard as elsewhere. This new Sheriff substation is setting an upscale tone. I went over and took a look for myself today after seeing it in the presentation, and I have to say it really looks grand. Built for LEED certification as well.
Good work, Shasta Lake City. Keep it up.
