New TV Pilot features Newcastle native
Melita Ann Sagar

For those brave enough to seek an acting career, the road can be a tough one (and we've all heard the stories).  Newcastle resident  Melita Ann Sagar is performing in a pilot series produced by David Beatty.  

The name of the series is Lien on Me, a witty and twisted depiction of a Real Estate agent who has all the homes in his area listed, but can't sell any of them!  His personal finances, family and complicated social and business ties make for a strange, yet hilarious comedy somewhat reminiscent of Weeds and Melita Sagar plays the part of Laura Jenkins, CEO of Happy Endings Realty.  She is single and a scorpio.  She is a delicate balance of elegance and rugged individualism, like going camping with double-quilted toilet paper.  

(Take a look at the cast and watch a couple of clips - I love it (of course, being in Real Estate, I can totally relate!! Terri)

Melita is a native to Newcastle California. Her father, who is now 86 years old, still lives in Newcastle and she visits him frequently. Her dream, one day, is to start a theater in Newcastle and bring her own brand of entertainment to her hometown.  Melissa is an actor, following her dreams, mother of two children... and she is currently working on a theatrical piece titled, "memories of an old man" which revolves around her father.

RENTALS NEEDED

Although I do not manage rental properties, I have had a large number of calls - people looking for homes to rent.  There seems to be a shortage in rental homes at this time.  If you have a rental property and would like me to post that on this web site - no charge, no obligation, I would be happy to do so.  I will post your contact information so that calls go directly to you.  

Thanks!

PUBLIC NOTICE
Interstate 80 Vertical Clearance Project

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is developing a project to increase the vertical clearance of eight overcrossings (OC) and one railroad underpass (UP) on Interstate 80 (I*)) in Placer County.  The overall goal of this project is to bring clearance up to the current standard of 16 feet 6 inches.

Brace Road OC
Horseshoe Bar OC
King Road OC
Penryn Road OC
Gilardi Road OC
Newcastle Road OC
Newcastle UP
Weimar Cross Road OC
Magra OC

When and Where:  Wednesday, March 24, 2010, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Newcastle Elementary School, 8951 Valley View Drive, Newcastle

Update on Meeting:

This meeting was  informal gathering of Caltrans employees and stationary graphic boards used to explain the schedules, procedures, detours and individual overcrossings.  I thought the format was very good and informative, allowing interested parties to ask questions at each station.  Highlights were:

• Work scheduled to begin in the spring of 2013, finishing in the winter of 2014.

• Each overcrossing/underpass will take about two months for renovation.

• Cost is about $27 million

• Local traffic primary impacted (for the entire two months, per overcrossing); I-80 disruptions will only occur for about two days, when the actual raising of the overcross occurs.

• During construction, adjacent overcrossings/underpasses will remain open.

• Largest impact will probably be during local rush hours (mostly schools) and to emergency response vehicles.
