SIMPLY THE BEST
through a comprehensive update that
will alleviate some of the confusion,”
says Brown. “The city is also looking
at revamping its facade-improvement
program for projects in Old Town,”
she says.
Real estate developers and Elk Grove
residents Jason Kline and wife Cecil-
ia Yi are an example of what’s possible.
They bought the 125-year-old Odd Fel-
lows Hall in 2015, spent 18 months ren-
ovating it and opened a School of Rock
music-school franchise in July 2017.
Other than a $4,700 facade-improve-
ment grant from the city, the $750,000
project was self-funded.
“The city wanted this project and was
extremely supportive, though there were
a lot of hoops,” Kline says. “A business
can thrive in Elk Grove, but an infill proj-
ect is challenging. You really have to make
your own path, and that’s what we did.
But I hope there are more like-minded
people who see Old Town’s tremendous
potential.”
