A workshop on franchise ownership p resented by Rick Morgin, FranNet
Women may be the minority in the franchising world, but whether they are breaking into existing industries or franchising their own companies, many of them are paving the way for others to do the same. FranNet has seen a 36 percent increase in women-owned franchises in the last five years!

This free workshop on Wednesday, May 25 will help you understand the franchise business opportunities available and why now is your time to jump in the trend. FranNet works with women to help them understand special financial incentives, training available and business opportunities available to women.

Tassajara Road Closure
We have been notified about an upcoming road closure 
that may affect your commute.  
A portion of Tassajara Road/Camino Tassajara will be closed between May 2, 2016, and December 2016. The closure will block access along Tassajara Road, north of Fallon Road. Drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians will be unable to use Tassajara Road/Camino Tassajara to travel between Dublin and the San Ramon/Danville area for the duration of the work, and will need to take alternate routes.  Alternative routes include both Windemere Parkway and Bollinger Canyon Road. 
  For information and updates on this project please go to www.dublin.ca.gov/roadwork .
