• Dixon Leaders Swap the Dias for Coffee Counters to Put Resident Voices First (independentvoice.com) — Dixon residents just wrapped up a month of informal "Coffee with a Councilmember" meetups, where they spoke directly with city leaders about growth, traffic, and local businesses. These conversations feed into the city's Dixon Grown initiative and upcoming environmental review for major development plans, giving locals more chances to shape how Dixon grows and where new projects go.
• Teachers Trained in Solar School Curriculum (independentvoice.com) — Teachers from Dixon High School and John Knight Middle School are now bringing hands-on solar energy lessons into local classrooms after completing a specialized training in Winters. Using We Care Solar's suitcase-style kits, Dixon students will build working solar setups, collect real data, and connect science lessons to global energy access challenges and future STEM careers.
• 1 Found Dead In Residential Fire In Solano County (patch.com) — Firefighters from Dixon were among several agencies called to a deadly house fire in the remote English Hills area north of Vacaville, where one occupant was found deceased. The blaze spread to nearby vegetation and an exterior garage, briefly prompting evacuations before crews contained the half-acre vegetation fire and secured the scene.
