Healdsburg’s annual Día de Muertos, which in the past few years has become a favorite community tradition, drew its largest crowd yet as up to 6,000 attendees took part in the vibrant and diverse afternoon event. Hosted by Corazón Healdsburg and the city of Healdsburg,...

A narrow stretch of Sunset Drive overlooking Villa Chanticleer, which has been called out by its residents as a potential hazardous location in an emergency, experienced a real-time test last Friday morning when a contractor’s pickup truck suddenly caught fire, sending flames some over 20 feet into the canopy of the wooded neighborhood...

As of Jan. 13, the DistrictR tool was live and functional, and anyone can draw up a city map of four, five or six districts, with the five-district model the only option for a rotating mayor, as Healdsburg has at present. Various tools are located in the upper right corner, as is common in such applications—a hand tool to move the map, a pen tool to select a district and color it, an eraser tool to fall back on. Residents have another three weeks to work with the mapping tool....

Pachanga! The city’s celebration of arts grants winners is Saturday Sept. 6 at the Healdsburg Plaza, starting at 5:30pm.

The City Council must address this issue with a “formula retail ordinance” that expands the boundaries of the retail area and codifies “formula business.” The 2030 General Plan protects businesses directly facing the Plaza, but not those around the Plaza, which explains why Faherty can slip into Ooh la Luxe’s space.

Don’t look now, but it’s almost Christmas. It may be too late to come up with the perfect celebration, but maybe not—several area restaurants have created special menus and events for the last big holiday of the year. Start off early on Christmas Eve with...

I’m so happy to read of this ("The Row", July 3). What a fantastic use of the area and keeping within the historical “spirit” of Healdsburg and not selling out to a huge hospitality operation. As a business owner and tenant from 1995 through 2003 I have a great respect and affection for the Humphrey family....

The June 8 flagpole event starts at 2pm, featuring speakers and entertainment for about a half-hour after which the group will adjourn to the nearby Healdsburg Bar & Grill (245 Healdsburg Ave.) for an after-party and auction...
