Temecula Valley, winegrowing region or party destination?

The tasting room is packed on a recent weekday afternoon at Wilson Creek Winery. Wineries give up their crushpads for weddings, concerts, corporate retreats, barbecue bashes. It's said that women of a certain age spill out of white stretch Hummers to pose for pictures in front of the entrance sign at Cougar Winery tops, evidently, are optional. More than any other wine region in California, Temecula is a place to party. Local growers have nothing really against tourism and nothing, certainly, against sales. But having survived the scourge of the glassy winged sharpshooter, the insect pest that helps spread the withering devastation of Pierce's disease, they now face a much more confounding dilemma: a wholesale indifference on the part of its patrons to the valley's viticultural strengths. Growers would like nothing more than to reclaim their reputation as a legitimate winegrowing region and compete with other California appellations, but despite the best intentions, they find themselves capitulating to a clientele that's just not that interested. "It's a real catch-22," says Jon McPherson of South Coast Winery, one of the region's largest.

Temecula Attorney approves mosque after contentious 8-hour hearing

La-me-temecula-mosque Just as many residents, including dozens of Muslims living in the Temecula Attorney Valley, condemned those attacks as bigoted vitriol born of an ignorance of Islamic beliefs. We are not terrorists. We are victims of terrorists we are victims of fear," Suhail Fares told the council. Early in the hearing, City Atty. Peter Thorson told council members that they could only consider land-use issues when reviewing the project and that to base any decision on religious, political or social factors would violate freedom of religion under the 1st Amendment. The mosque and center reflect a Mediterranean design seen in many Temecula neighborhoods, though the building will have traditional domes topped with crescent moons.

Kaiser uncertain about Temecula Attorney hospital

Naggar said he can understand the not-for-profit's reluctance to commit to a hospital when studies and government data show that the fewer people are staying in hospitals for long periods. "In 10 years, you may not need these hospital beds," he said. "At the same time, we want to have some authority over what goes on that property." The land eyed by Kaiser, undeveloped acreage near the Harveston development, is one of the most valuable pieces of property in the city because of its location near the freeway and the French Valley Parkway project, which will add a bridge over Interstate 15 connecting the area with Murrieta and a new offramp bringing in motorists from I-15. "Theres no way we http://temecula-re-helpcenter.org can support tying up land for that long," Naggar said, adding that there are a lot of people making inquiries about the availability of the parcels. "The more the economy recovers, the more stirrings for that property." Karen Roberts, Kaiser's director of public affairs, said last year that Kaiser has only filed a pre-application and has not committed to moving forward with anything in Temecula Attorney. On Thursday, she said that Kaiser was still in the "due diligence" phase.
