Issue: January 03, 2019
Happy New Year, readers!
In the spirit of the new year and as is tradition at the CN&R, we have made predictions on who we believe will make headlines in 2019. Read our feature story this week, Whom to Watch, to find out more.
In other news: I checked in with some folks who have returned to their homes on the Ridge (or, in one case, never left) to see what's become the new normal; we look into a new group forming to work on long-term recovery; and a local environmental group files a lawsuit against the city of Chico and the developers behind the Stonegate community, citing it violates the general plan.
There's always more, so don't forget to pick up your copy on news stands today!
Until next time,
Meredith J. Cooper, managing editor
