RENEWBIZ Grant due FRIDAY, Sept 20

The RENEWBIZ Grant application, is now due September 20th at 4:30pm. This is good since it may trigger the first round of investment in our downtown area – particularity those on K Street & Sierra Highway, who are excellent candidates for the grant.

Code Compliance makes an impact

Mojave Foundation participated in a code compliance drive on June 29th to identify, document and record the most egregious housing & safety hazards in our downtown area. Already we have seen property owners are making improvements, and we commend those efforts. We will continue to educate homeowners and residents as to housing standards in Kern County, in an effort to raise expectations here in Mojave.

The drive on June 29th would not have been possible if it weren’t for the support of the Kern County Sheriff’s Office, who provided 2 deputies to the effort; and the support of Michele Gardner, who participated in Saturday’s drive. The Mojave Foundation would like to thank KCSO and Gardner Realty for their professionalism and continued investment in the community.
