Healdsburg Developer Gives Back to the Community
Healdsburg entrepreneur Michael Houlihan has brought an innovative “family first” economic stimulus program to Healdsburg that promises to generate up to $35,000 for local retailers. As Managing Member of Foss Creek Villas, LLC, he is giving new owners of
these downtown luxury condos a move-in gift of $1,000 to spend with any Healdsburg merchant who are part of the “Trade Links” Merchant Referral Program.
“Its simple,” says Houlihan. “Homeowners cash in at close of escrow, and can spend a $1,000 gift certificate with the Merchant partner store of their choice. Merchant partners must either prominently display our marketing brochure in their stores, or link their web sites to the Foss Creek Villas web site www.fosscreekvillas.com
“This is where the ‘trading links’ designation was born,” he said. He
added that merchants seeking their share of remaining available funds should contact Deborah Longfellow at (707) 433-8500 immediately.
The program launched last fall and since then, local merchants have reaped $15,000 in gift certificates, while seven homeowners have gone shopping. Merchant beneficiaries to date include Cena Luna, Costeaux French Bakery, Dry Creek Kitchen, Garrett ACE Hardware, Gift Horse, Healdsburg Furniture, Hudson Street Design, St. Dizier Home and Souverain.
“This program is novel, practical and positive, and we’re delighted to be part of it,” said Rich Zahedinia of Healdsburg Furniture. “We are benefiting financially, we’re meeting our new neighbors and we’re helping them get settled into their new home and community—it’s all good!”

Our 23rd annual Business Trade show, was held yesterday at the Villa Chanticleer. More than 450 people came to the show between 4 and 7 p.m. to visit more than 50 local business vendors.
Despite the rainy weather, four Seniors from Rio Lindo Academy; Daisy, Erin, Adrian, Geordan and their Community Services Director Steve Martin, were there to help our vendors unload their vehicles, assist with their booth setup and also help out by serving water and snacks to our vendors during the show.
After tallying the ballots for ‘Best Booth’ and ‘Best Food Booth’, we are excited to announce that Exchange Bank secured the Best Booth award and the Best Food Booth went to Big John’s Market.
The winner of the Business Power Pack drawing, which includes a free one-year Chamber membership, a free 5 week ad-campaign in the Healdsburg Tribune, and 1,000 full-color business cards from Amoruso Printing goes to Lorraine Plass of Healdsburg Notary.
The silent auction, with $20,000 worth of goods and services and over 40 items, raised more than $4,000! Which will go towards the Chamber’s operating budget to help support our program of work in building a strong local economy, promoting the community, providing networking opportunities for members and being the voice of business with local and regional government.

The Business Environmental Alliance held its ninth annual Business Leaders’ Breakfast on Feb. 26, 2010.
Best Practices Awards go to businesses that have bolstered their bottom lines in an environmentally friendly way. Healdsburg Chamber Members Simi Winery, Truett Hurst Winery and Vintners Inn were among those honored at the breakfast.
The keynote speaker, Andy Hoffman, professor of Sustainable Enterprise at the University of Michigan, spoke about about trends for businesses based on use of petroleum. “Don’t think of climate change as an environmental issue,” Mr. Hoffman said. “Think about it as a market issue.”
Discussing economical strategies on the business leader panel was Iver Skavdal, president, chief executive officer and chairman of Winzler & Kelly; Blair Kellison, CEO of Traditional Medicinals; Doug Rackerby, facilities supervisor of Exchange Bank; and David Proctor, executive vice president and chief financial officer of Friedman’s Home Improvement.Simi Winery - Sonoma County VintnersTruett Hurst Winery - Healdsburg ChamberVintners Inn, LLC - Sonoma County Lodging Assoc.

Chamber Members recognized with ‘Best Practices Awards’
We would like to thank all of our volunteers from last summer, for donating your time and efforts during our 2009 Annual Healdsburg Harvest Century Bicycle Tour. Our event was spectacular due to the positive volunteer support, and things went ever so smoothly.
We heard from many of our 781 riders on the road that our 2009 event was one of the most beautiful rides and the most organized ride that they have ever participated in, which in large part is due to your efforts.
We are once again looking for your assistance and support as we prepare for our 2010 Healdsburg Harvest Century Bicycle Tour. Please keep an eye out for further announcements and communication regarding the tour.

There is a newly added section 6225 to the California Revenue and Taxation Code (RTC) that requires a qualified purchaser to register with the Board of Equalization (BOE) and report and pay use tax directly to the BOE by April 15th for the preceding calendar year for purchases subject to use tax. Under this section, a qualified purchaser is a person who has at least $100,000 in gross receipts per year from business operations, is not required to hold a seller’s permit or a certificate of registration use tax, does not hold a use tax direct payment permit, or is not otherwise registered with the BOE for use tax. In September 2009 they sent the following link to their special notice with information regarding the new use tax registration requirements: www.boe.ca.gov/news/pdf/l232.pdf
Under California law, if sales tax would apply when a particular item is purchased in California, use tax applies when a similar purchase is made from a retailer outside the state and no tax is charged. Use tax is not a new tax. It has been a part of the California RTC since the 1930’s. Only the registration requirement is new under RTC section 6225.
As part of their registration efforts, BOE contacted approximately 180,000 identified qualified purchasers and informed them of the new program. In an effort to help ease taxpayer burden, they have registered those taxpayers through our automated registration system. In the next couple of weeks, taxpayers will receive their “welcome letter”, a copy of which is provided in the following link www.boe.ca.gov/news/pdf/qp_a.pdf The letter introduces the program and provides taxpayers with their new BOE account number and express login code. Through their automated system, taxpayers will use their account number and express login code to e-file their use tax returns for years 2007, 2008 and 2009.
For more information about the BOE’s e-filing and other tax and fee programs, please visit their website at www.boe.ca.gov
