Have Breakfast With the Mayor Petaluma Mayor Teresa Barrett

will provide the eye openers in a breakfast speech at The Petaluma Women in Business (WIB) breakfast on Wednesday, May 8, from 7:30 through 9 a.m. at the Palms Grill, 100 S. McDowell Blvd.

After more than a decade of service on the Petaluma City Council, Barrett was elected Mayor of Petaluma last November. Her breakfast speech will center on what she’s learned on her journey into politics.

Barrett is a resident of Petaluma since 1979. She received her bachelor’s degree in International Relations from San Francisco State University and her master’s in Economic History from University of California at Los Angeles. She also completed the UC Master Gardener Program in 1985. She is a member of many local, regional and international organizations including COTS, Rebuilding Together, Sonoma County Historical Society and is a

lifetime member of the Petaluma Museum Association. Her public service career also includes 9 years on the Petaluma Planning Commission.

This WIB monthly breakfast also includes opportunities for networking and is open to all interested participants. For more information contact the Petaluma Area Chamber of Commerce at (707) 762-2785 or [email protected] Teresa Barrett

Member Values Community ConnectionWhile new Petaluma Area Chamber

of Commerce (PACC) member Michael “Bug” Deakin, owner of Heritage Salvage, 1473 Petaluma Blvd. So., is no stranger to the community, he’s always looking for ways “to engage and be engaged” locally. Chamber membership, he said, seems another good way to connect.

One of his business values, Deakin said, is active participation and connection in the community. “Every time we can reach out and touch somebody in our community...we love to do that.” Deakin has been doing just that for nearly 20 years. His business has been more than the reclaimed building materials and wood for flooring, siding, beams, posts, and architectural elements in homes, businesses, restaurants, yurts, taverns, teahouses and mansions, he sells through Heritage Salvage.

Recent community projects include participation on Petaluma’s Miracle

League ball park and the Salmon Creek Spirit Of Windfall Project where Heritage Salvage helped con-serve the remains of a 370 year old, 165-foot tall, 9-foot diameter redwood; milled the tree into 1x12 slabs, while helping youths involved in the project to stack, sticker, and air dry the wood for sale to benefit local high school environmental education programs.

“No project or order is too big or too small. If you can draw it on a bar napkin, we can build it!”, Deakin has frequently been quoted as saying.

Known by almost everyone locally as “Bug,” one of Deakin’s newest brainstorms, to staunch the effects of corporate giants like Amazon on local retailers, is a plan to revamp the Heritage Salvage yard as a venue where members of the still-to-be-formed “brick and mortar” club of local retailers can stage promotional events. Readying the yard, including a revamp of the “kid zone,” that will feature reclaimed playground

features like a teeter-totter from about 1946, should take a month or two, according to Deakin.

Deakin and some of the Heritage Salvage crew are now showing on national television. “Heritage Hunters” is airing now on DIY Network, Amazon Prime, YouTube, iTunes and Sling.

Even away from his community, Deakin is thinking of ways to build his connection, talking about his plans to begin the “brick and mortar” club once he gets home from his driving tour of Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia where he’s been visiting clients and seeking salvage.

PACC welcomes “Bug” and his 15 member employee “family” to the Chamber and encourages those who don’t know him to introduce themselves—maybe ask him about the “brick and mortar” club.

Michael “Bug” Deakin, owner of Heritage Salvage, says PACC membership is part of the effort to engage and be engaged in the community he appreciates. His “velcro buddy” (the kind who stick together) Donovan (son of Chris and Heather, Heritage Salvage employees) agrees.

PACC Board of Directors President Wayne Leach lends a hand at the opening of Slashed Studio’s new location at 314 B St.

Emergency Preparedness Team Being Formed

Residents interested in learning how to get prepared for—and bounce back from—emergencies and natural disasters and those willing to share that knowledge with other business leaders in the community are being asked to join a new volunteer Business Emergency Response Team.

The Business Emergency Response Team is being formed in a partnership between the Petaluma Area Chamber of Commerce (PACC) and the City

Event Honors Community Members

Petaluma Citizen of the Year, Bob Tuttle and other community members were honored last month at the Community Awards of Excellence gala, sponsored by the Petaluma Area Chamber of Commerce (PACC), the Petaluma Argus Courier, and the Rooster Run Event Center, but for those who missed the recognition ceremony here’s a quick recap of the honorees.

Next month’s Petaluma Business will also feature some photos of the notable annual community event honoring some of the city’s finest citizens.

Citizen of the Year Tuttle said upon learning of his award, “I am honored to have the award. I feel it’s important for all people to take responsibility for their communities. If you are going to use the resources of a community you should give back to it.” Tuttle has excelled in giving back through his project management with Rebuilding Together Petaluma, a nonprofit that

helps people repair their homes. Other volunteer work includes his participation in international projects with the Petaluma Sunrise Rotary Club. Also, he has helped with Project Graduation, the Boys and Girls Club, Petaluma People Services Center and more.

In addition to Tuttle, other honorees include: Patrick Gerke, Police Officer of the Year; Trevor Steis, Firefighter of the Year; Ohana Construction, Small Business of the Year; Dow Development Labs, Large Business of the Year; Frank Gambonini, Excellence in Agriculture; Dan Hubacker, Excellence in Education; Paul and Anne Greenblatt, Service to Seniors; The Miracle League of the North Bay, service to Youth; Lagunitas Brewery took the “Sumpin’ Special Award; and Russ McDaniel was named Volunteer of the Year.

Whenever you run into members of this lineup, consider congratulations and thanks for a job well done.

Security System Providers Combine

Petaluma Area Chamber of Com-

merce member, Advanced Security

Systems, recently announced the

purchase of one of Petaluma’s oldest

and largest security system providers,

K&R Security, Inc., according to a

company spokesman.

Karim Salih, president and operator

of K&R Security, also announced his

retirement along with the sale. Salih

and his wife plan to remain in the

Petaluma area.

“In announcing my retirement,

I was careful to select a security

system provider with over 48 years

of combined experience, not only in

security systems, but access control

systems, surveillance systems,

and fire alarm systems. Advanced

Security fills the bill with a proven

track record of operating a local,

family-owned, regional security

company,” K&R Security executive Salih said.

Chuck Petrusha, president and CEO of Advanced Security Systems, extended a warm welcome to the K&R Security clients. “I can assure our K&R Security clients a smooth transition with the quality of service, monitoring, and testing you’ve come to trust,” he said.

Advanced Security Systems will continue to service K&R Security customers from its existing Sonoma County location in Santa Rosa. Customers can use K&R Security telephone numbers to contact the main office and the monitoring station—707-762-5311 (office) and 800-353-3064 (24-hour monitoring station)—that they are used to.
