Has the Town of Yountville found the secret of youth? Not exactly. But it has earned the designation of being a Blue Zones-approved workplace. Read about steps town staff took to earn this status, why it’s important, and how it could help residents live longer, healthier lives.

The Sun also reports this week on why the town had to have several giant coast redwood trees along Hopper Creek cut down, and on the creation of an ad-hoc council committee to explore a Yountville ‘ban’ on single-use plastics in foodware products.

Also, if you’re reading this on March 21 before 6 p.m., there’s still time to let the Parks & Recreation Advisory Commission know how you feel about off-leash dog park hours, a new dog run south of Veterans Park, a giant shade structure at Community Park, and plans for some added features at Vineyard Park near the pickleball courts. Details in the paper.
