Lincoln

The small town ( See Virtual Tour)  image of Lincoln, California is being challenged -- Lincoln has earned the title of "fastest growing city in California".  A city growing at this pace must constantly focus on keeping the General Plan for Growth updated and that is exactly what the Mayor and City Council Members are doing.  The desire to "create a community that establishes an equilibrium between environmental sensitivity, the bottom line and livability."  The major growth area is in the Twelve Bridges planned community.

Lincoln is in the Western Placer Unified School District.  The school district has an ambitious plan in place to meet the needs of the growing population.

Top business in Lincoln include Solectron, Western Placer School District, Sierra Pacific Industries, Gladding McBean, BZ Plumbing, Twelve Bridges, Safeway, City of Lincoln and RobbJack.  

 

The regional airport is recognized as one of the finest small airports in Northern California with a 6,000 foot runway and is equipped with an Instrument Landing System.  Both corporate and general aviation use the airport.  The airport has 1,280 acres of commercial development and is a "free trade zone" which helps to attract business to the area.

Sutter Medical Plaza is currently under construction and will house Sutter Hospital physicians and medical services. 

Parks are an important part of the community.  McBean Memorial Community Park fills its 23 acres with a swimming pool, lighted baseball, football, soccer stadium, basketball and tennis courts, a state of the art skateboard park, horseshoe pits, two children's play areas, picnic area and an open recreation area.  Joiner Park's 13 acres include a soccer and a baseball field, basketball court, children's play area and a vernal pool wetlands area.  Markham Ravine Park has a picnic area, children's play area and is situated near a protected wetlands.  Lincoln has a full range of youth sports teams.
