An Update from Yountville Public Works Director John Ferons

ublic Works Department are happy to report to the community the recent progress on the Commons site.  In June, we reported that the basic move-in and operational work was complete in time for our excellent Parks and Recreation team to host Camp Y-ville on the site.  Now that camp is over, work resumes on the site. Most notably, and sticking with the theme, “Canine Commons”, the Town’s first ever dog park opened this week due to efforts from Town staff, our contract manager, and two contractors.  The next most obvious change is the painting of the buildings in the theme of the Community Center and Community Hall.  But wait, don’t be alarmed, the school’s history is being preserved: the tribute walls with students’ handprints are being protected and preserved. Choosing a paint theme to match the Town’s building will make them immediately recognizable as a Town resource or, more fittingly, the Yountville Commons.

While the site continues to be improved, Town staff and our consultants are working on the next phase which is the Town Council-approved Wellness Center and Farmstand. The Wellness Center, the medium-sized building in the middle, will receive an internal makeover to accommodate the future Yountville Fit gym use.  The Farmstand, formerly known as the Snack Shack, will receive an external glow up to create an inviting outdoor space for that casual cup of coffee or soup of the day.

In the meantime, our dedicated public staff will continue to perform work on the grounds and buildings to bring Yountville Commons up to the standards provided at all of our public facilities. Learn More.

With good reason, Cabernet Sauvignon is king in Napa Valley. The valley’s Mediterranean climate is ideal for this thick-skinned noble variety that requires warm days to ripen. Conversely, Pinot Noir wants a cooler coastal climate to capture its nuanced elegance that delights so many wine lovers. Happily, there’s just such a place ideal for growing Pinot Noir and a winery inspired by the study of it. Put Etude on your next Napa Valley itinerary.
