Citywide moratorium on new personal storage facilities

Elk Grove has 19 self-storage facilities with more coming, and the city wants to hit pause on new approvals while staff studies whether to ban or restrict the use. Critics say storage eats up land that could be jobs, housing, or walkable retail; projects already approved won't be touched. The council takes it up August 26.

Bartholomew Winery expansion and amplified music in agricultural-residential zones

The winery wanted to more than double its events and add outdoor amplified music. Neighbors split over noise impacts versus supporting a beloved local business. The council approved it with strict noise conditions and a 60-day complaint log requirement.
