BUSINESS REPORTER6904 El Camino Real • Atascadero, CA 93422
In 1913, E.G. Lewis visualized a new community that would, ultimately, accommodate the automobile. He chose the Atascadero Rancho because it was, among other
things, located on the El Camino Real halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles. In 2013, Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk, visualized opening a new route on the scenic Highway 101 corridor between San Francisco and Los Angeles to ac-commodate his Model S electric vehicle. Both saw the advan-tage of Atascadero’s location.
With charging stations, called Superchargers, already located in Gilroy and Buellton, Atascadero was seen as a logical choice by Musk to enhance the driving experience of his vehicle owners. According to the Tesla Motors website (www.teslamotors.com), the strategic placement of Superchargers near amenities like roadside diners, cafes, and shopping centers enables Tesla Model S drivers to travel for about three hours between chargings. When they need a
break or to re-charge, owners can plug in, take a 20 to 30 minute break, grab lunch or a soda or coffee, and get back on the road charged up.
Recently, in partnership with Rabobank, N.A., Tesla installed eight Supercharger stations in the Atascadero Rabobank parking lot. To help Tesla S owners find a Supercharger, each station is GPS-located on Google Maps and the Tesla website. Also, each station has its own webpage with driving
directions to the station as well as a list of nearby restaurants, restrooms and wi-fi locations.
What does this means for Atascadero businesses? By using Google Maps or the vehicle’s onboard 17” touch screen, Model S owners can get information specific to the Atascadero Supercharger (http://www.teslamotors.com/supercharger/atascadero). When they stop to charge their vehicles, they will have the opportunity to sample the offerings of our local businesses. They may choose to stroll north to visit shops and restaurants, south for a latte and snack or simply walk across the street for a meal and some ice cream. They might even choose to stay and watch a movie, visit our new “Your American Heritage Monument” or explore our historic City Administration Building.
Mike Talen, owner of Coldstone Creamery, reports he has already met and gotten positive feedback from some Tesla S

Chamber’s Perspective
Meet Your Directors
President’s PerspectiveLinda Hendy, President/CEO
Moving forward with change can be uncomfortable for some but if embraced can be a wonderful opportunity to grow and learn. When asked
daily “How is it going in Atascadero”? Why are so many employees retiring or moving on? I simply answer that there was a life opportunity for those employees to move forward and our City is embracing the change. We must not forget what makes Atascadero a great place to live and work, it is the people who make our City what it is today both those who have recently moved on and those who are working daily to better Atascadero.
The Chamber is excited to welcome Rachelle Richard to her new position as City Manager for Atascadero. We are in
awe as to how profes-sional Rachelle man-aged the restoration of the Historic City Hall rotunda building, overseeing construc-tion while navigating through the intricacies of the FEMA fund-ing and compliance requirements, this was not a minor task. Rach-elle is an exceptionally qualified individual who has worked for the City for over 16 years; this was a huge benefit to filling the open position of City Manager. Not only is Rachelle famil-iar with the City’s history her quality work and her integrity speaks for itself. The Chamber looks forward to the new lead-ership Rachelle will bring to the City and the opportunity to learn and grow through our partnership.

MidAmerican Solar is the proud owner of Topaz Solar Farms, one of the largest solar projects under construction in the world. Located in San Luis Obispo County, the 550-megawatt photovoltaic project will generate enough renewable energy to power approximately 160,000 average California homes.
MidAmerican Solar, a subsidiary of MidAmerican Renewables, is headquartered in Phoenix, Ariz. MidAmerican Solar also owns the 579-megawatt Solar Star projects, two co-located projects in Kern and Los Angeles counties in California, and has a 49 percent ownership interest in the 290-megawatt Agua Caliente project in Yuma County, Ariz.
Construction on the Topaz Solar Farms project began in November 2011 and is expected to be complete by early 2015. Pacific Gas and Electric Company will purchase the energy from the Topaz project under a 25-year power purchase agreement, helping California meet its mandate to generate 33 percent of its power from renewable sources by 2020.
The project is deploying First Solar’s advanced thin-film PV modules, which generate electricity with no emissions, waste or water use and have the smallest carbon footprint of any PV technology. Energy generated by the project will displace approximately 377,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year–theequivalentoftakingapproximately73,000carsoffthe road.
Topaz Solar Farms is being built on previously disturbed agricultural land with a minimally impervious surface that allows for natural drainage and low-impact development. The project was designed to function as productive grassland habitat for native plants and animals while being used for passive farming of the sun’s energy.
More than 17,000 acres near the project site will be protected from development or agricultural disking during operations. Following the end of Topaz project operations, the area will be restored, leaving more than 20,000 acres that will be protected in perpetuity as native species habitat.

owners who dropped by for a “cold one” while their vehicle charged across the street. When asked her thoughts about the new addition, City Manager Rachelle Rickard said, “The Tesla Station is another great example of a win-win solution. It provides a convenient place for motorists to re-charge their vehicles and themselves. I think Tesla users will be pleasantly surprised at the variety of local shops, restaurants, and services available within walking distance, and I think local business owners will be pleased with increase in pedestrian traffic; and all this while doing good for the environment.”
The pioneering spirit of E.G. Lewis put Atascadero on the printed map in 1913. A century later, that same pioneering spirit has put us on the map of the future. I think E. G. Lewis would approve. –WrittenbyTerryBarnett.

of the hills incorporated into the race courses, whose breath-stealing rises throughout Pomar Junction’s acreage took most runners by surprise. Hills or not, the overall winners of each race proved that even a daunting course such as this one could be conquered. These winners included: Youness Bennani, Overall Male 5K winner in a time of 20:59; Lisa Mueller, Overall Female 5K Winner in a time of 29:18; Matt Gaver, Overall 10K Male Winner in a time of 43:12; and Jesse Bierlich; Overall Female 10K Winner in a time of 53:45. When polled if they would run it again, the resoundinganswerwas,“Youbet!”
TheFamily FunDay portion of the event featuredTheDiaper Derby, with “racers” charging (well, crawling…)towards a teddy bear-lined finish line. Event winner was Mirac Mattson (son of Atascadero News Sports Editor, Nicholas Mattson) who may or may not have been lured more quickly to the finish line by a stray dollar bill from the wallet of Atascadero Chamber of Commerce Chairman of theBoard,GriggerJones.FollowingtheDiaperDerby,Mr.Wayne Cooper, Atascadero’s own 2013 Citizen of the Year, was announced the winner of the raffle for the brand new washer and dryer generously donated by Idler’s Appliances.
Additionally, families enjoyed many of the available kid-friendly activities, including face painting, Home DepotCraft Area, bounce house, and obstacle course. And what attendee didn’t delight in the free scoops of Cold Stone Creamery ice cream served up by Atascadero Chamber of Commerce board member, Mike Talen?
The day was truly a festive, organized, and well-received fundraiser for LIGHTHOUSE, and NCYP can’t thank our vendors, donors, and volunteers enough for making it so, especially: Pomar Junction Vineyard and Winery, The
Greyhound Foundation, The Atascadero Chamber of Commerce,ByRequestDJ’s, JohnSummerofTaylorFrigon Capital Management, Dennis Swanson ofStudio 101 West, Jordanos, Idler’s Appliances, Cold Stone Creamery, Reilly Newman, Tamrah Michael, KManCycle andRun,DaveFleishmanofHanley&Fleishman, LLC, Best Western Colony Inn, Burger Websites, Foundations Family Wellness, and all of our dedicated NCYP Committee Members and the many others who made this event possible.

Ambassadors, Staff, Members and Guests are ready to get the mixer started!
Robert Borish of North County Tax and Accounting, CR Lara of the Latino Outreach Council and Charlotte Covington of McGee’s Catering enjoyed the coolness of the Portola Inn Mixer.
“After Hours” Mixer
Mayor Tom and Peggy O’Malley stand in front of their beautiful Portola Inn ready to greet guests arriving by trolley for an evening of music, fun, food and networking.
We’ve all been waiting for al-most 10 years for this event. This just might be one of the highlights of the Centennial Celebration (1913–2013).
Following the San Simeon Earthquake in 2004, a fence went
up around the City Administration Building and we have all been waiting for the day the fence would come down, mean-ingourgrandcityhallbuildingisBACK!
And so it is.A special grand opening celebration will be held on Fri-
day, Aug. 2 where guests will have the opportunity to take part in a progressive “heavy appetizers” dinner, enjoying a different course on each floor as they work their way to the upper rotunda and what is promised to be some wonder-ful desserts. There will be live and silent auctions all intend-ed to help underwrite the res-toration of the four fountains on the grounds surrounding the building. That restoration work, by the way, is already well underway.
Tickets for this private opening cost $100 a person. You can check with the city to see if any tickets are still avail-able. The evening begins at 6 p.m.
A special centennial beer is being provided by Central Coast Brewing Co., called Ro-tunda Centennial Session Pale Ale. In addition, Atascadero’s popular Frolicking Frog own-ers, Stu and Maria Goldman, have created a “Zintennial” for the celebration.
BUT on Tuesday, Aug. 20, you can visit the building for free. Following a ribbon cut-ting at 10 a.m. on the steps of the Administration Build-ing, everyone will get a look at the approximately $35 million restoration project. Not only
was the building “fixed” following the earthquake damage, there was a lot of work done that even E.G. Lewis didn’t get around to doing, such as painting the individually-sculpted ceramics on the grand ceiling of the lower rotunda.
Atascadero Historical Society has been working with the city to establish historic displays.
A lot of beautiful pictures have been enlarged to adorn the walls. Other special historical displays will be set up in the two rooms off the lobby. You’ll also get a peek into what was done to make the building safe. You’ll even have the opportu-nity to take a look inside the dome to see what some of that original construction looks like almost 100 years later.
It’s a celebration we can all share in, that’s for sure.For more information, go to www. atascaderocentennial.

Our historic City Hall, badly damaged during the San Simeon earthquake in 2003, is finally nearing com-pletionofitsrestoration!Iknowthepublicisanxious
to see the inside improvements, and City staff is excited to get back to work in the building we all love.
I am pleased to announce two special grand opening celebrations as the doors to the Historic Administration Building are scheduled to officially re-open as Atascadero City Hall. This magnificent structure is a significant part of Atascadero’s history. Originally built in 1918, the building sustained extensive damage in the 2003 San Simeon earthquake. After years of hard work, it has now been restored and retrofitted, and is truly a historic masterpiece on California’s Central Coast. The final details are being completed, and the doors will open this August. The ceiling of the lower rotunda is just one example of the grandeur natureof thisbuilding– it iscaptivating,withtheoriginalornamental ceiling now painted with multiple colors to create depth, enhance the details and add artistic charm to the space. The building is truly a masterpiece that the public is encouraged to visit once it is open.
The first event scheduled is a Grand Opening Preview, called “An Elegant Evening at the Rotunda.” Scheduled for the evening of Friday, August 2nd, the Elegant Evening is a unique opportunity for guests to experience a special preview of the beautiful Historic City Hall before all of the furniture
is moved in. As guests embark on a special tour of each room of the building, they will participate in a progressive dinner, experiencing a different course in each wing of the building, with dessert in the upper rotunda. This is a black tie optional event with a special program, auction and dancing. Tickets are $100 per person with proceeds from this event benefitting the historic Fountain Restoration Project.
After the Grand Opening Preview, the City will move our officesintothebuilding.Departmentswillmoveonebyonestarting the week of August 5th. Once everyone has moved in, the City Hall will officially open to the public with a daylong Grand Opening celebration on Tuesday, August 20th. This event will start off with a ribbon cutting and opening ceremony at 10 am. The Historical Society will be conducting frequent free tours of the building, and City staff and docents from the Historical Society will also be available to answer questions about the history and restoration.
The Atascadero Historical Society will have items on permanent display in the City Hall. Those community members that are not able to attend on August 20th are encouraged to schedule a tour at a future time. The opening of this building is expected to revitalize a significant part of the City’s downtown core. As tourism in this area continues to grow, the opening of the City Hall is also an opportunity for visitors to the area to experience a charming part of local history.
One of the last historic elements yet to be restored are the fountains that grace the grounds surrounding building. Installed originally when the building was constructed, they were converted to planters decades ago. The goal of the Fountain Restoration Project is to restore them to their originalfunctionasbeautifulfountainsonceagain.Donationswill be accepted towards the fountain restoration project.
It is an additional pleasure to announce that these celebrations are part of the Centennial Celebrations, marking 100 years since the Colony of Atascadero was founded by E.G. Lewis. For details on these special events, please call 805-461-5000 or visit www.atascadero.org.

News FromThe City
By City Manager, Rachelle Rickard
I am saddened to greet you with news about the loss of my dear friend and colleague Supervisor Paul Teixeira. Al-though the Arnold and Teixeira friendship spans several
decades, I felt that I gained an even greater respect for Paul having worked alongside him to address some of the complex issues that we have faced as members of the Board of Supervi-sors (BOS) these last few months. To me, Paul was first and foremost a family man as well as a great servant of his com-munity. He served our community with a big heart and a warm smile and will be dearly missed.
Many have asked me what will happen to Supervisor Teixeira’sseatontheBOSrepresentingDistrict4.Pursuantto Government Code Sections 25060.-25062., it is our understanding that Supervisor Teixeira’s replacement shall be appointed by the Governor, “Whenever a vacancy occurs in any board of supervisors, the Governor shall fill the vacancy. The appointee shall hold office until the election and qualification of his successor.” The County immediately notified Governor Brown of the vacancy and is awaiting his response.
Although my years of working with Senator Blakeslee have helped me have a better understanding of how important
the budget process is, this year marked the first time I was able to participate in the process as a Supervisor. Often, the direction of the government can be changed through budget allocations. As we allocate funding to specific programs and departments, we are also funding the direction that we want the government to go. As a Supervisor, I also sit on several other boards. In an attempt to make government more accountable, I am challenging the status quo and am encouraged by the support of my colleagues on several of these boards. For example, I feel that a positive change was made with the Air Pollution Control Board by the creation of an Executive Board that will review and set the agenda in lieu of the staff setting the agenda. This is one of the small things that will hopefully go a long way to bring the citizen’s voice back into the board hearings.
Friends of the Library and I are delighted to announce the upcoming Atascadero Library Expansion Groundbreaking Ceremony on Friday, July 19th at 9 a.m. The ceremony will be held at the new library site located at 6555 Capistrano Avenue, Atascadero. Refreshments will be served. I hope to see you there. Please contact my office at 805-781-4339 for more information.I hope you and your families have a wonderful summer. Thank you again for all of the support you have given me. Sincerely,DebbieArnold Supervisor,5thDistrict
