Business View Magazine | October 2019

322 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE OCTOBER 2019 Fanita Ranch will include approximately 2,000 acres of protected open space, parks and a community farm, plus over 35 miles of recreational trails. There will also be small clusters of community-serving retail, along with sites for a new fire station and a K-8 school. Sustainability is a core focus of the plan for Fanita Ranch, and a small, on-site solar farm will produce power for new homes and businesses. The community will also use cutting edge water re-use and conservation technologies, as well as proven techniques like drought- tolerant landscaping and potential gray water recycling. “Santee is a growing and dynamic city that has available land, and it’s one of the most desirable places to live in the entire world,” Maertz enthuses. “The weather is spectacular; you’re close to the beaches; you’re close to the mountains; you have all the amenities of a large city, but with a small- town feel. It’s environmental and business-friendly at the same time. It’s a southern California dream kind of place.” PREFERRED VENDOR n Crafters Fence Inc. www.craftersfence.com
