events at their location, bringing people in,” Rowlands describes. BALANCING GROWTH AND COMMUNITY CHARACTER Mayor Broggie emphasizes the importance of controlled growth in Fillmore, as it works with developers such as Hearthstone, Comstock Homes, and Williams Homes to bring more housing to the community. The city has seen significant residential development, such as The Bridges, a large project that reflects the community’s preference for maintaining its small-town charm. “Kevin (McSweeney) has an eye for what fits in Fillmore, and the concept of adhering to what people in Fillmore want to see,” she explains, “A lot of it is just continuing with the Mayberry feel of the town. When we’re talking to developers, in these residential areas, we ensure that they have that same mindset, balconies and wrap around porches and things of that sort, which is important to Fillmore. That’s the look that we have, that we want to retain.” SMALL TOWN HAS NEVER 399 E.
