This division employs key staff to enforce and administer the rules: fire marshal and assistant fire marshall, fire prevention inspector, hazardous waste inspector, plan check engineers and public education lieutenant.
Truly a hidden lake park, this gem is tucked away off the main road in a quiet neighborhood. There are plenty of birds to feed and many places to sit, including a dock halfway along the trail. With three picnic tables and barbeque pits, this is the perfect place for a small family picnic.
About 3,500 businesses operate in the city, and there's only one umbrella organization that represents them all. The Milpitas Chamber of Commerce is a sure way to network and promote your interests as an owner or manager, whether you run a corporation or or are self-employed.
The Board of Directors meets the last Thursday of the month at 7:30am. Rather than attend meetings, members are encouraged to participate in social events, such as the speaker series, after-hours mixers, the connection club, the annual crab feed and more.
Benefits for members include special rates for events, as well as discounts to other businesses that belong to the chamber. For example, Office Depot will take 15 to 25 percent off your total bill upon presenting your chamber membership.
The chamber publishes a business directory (in print and online) of members. In addition, the organization prints a map of the city each year complete with business listings and ads.
A newsletter on governmental affairs and business developments is mailed to members and can be found online.
