Linda Moore a broker associate with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Encinitas was recently announced as the winner of the company’s moving contest for San Diego. The contest which ran from August through October of this year was based on the number of clients that Linda referred to the Coldwell Banker Concierge Department for moving services.

“I’m proud of the fact that my company not only represents buyers and sellers in real estate but that we also have a complete Concierge service that provides recommendations for all of the services they need at the time of a move,” Linda was noted as saying. “The main reason why I like to use the Concierge’s mover services, and other services they recommend, is that the Concierge has verified each company’s reputability, insurance, bonding, etc, and stands behind those services. If the client has an issue with the vendor, they simply contact the Concierge, and the Concierge handles it for them. This has proved extremely valuable to my customers.”

“Linda always takes the lead in providing the best service to her clients so it was no surprise that she won our recent contest,” said Rick Hoffman, President of Coldwell Banker San Diego. “To win a contest like this over more than 1,200 sales associates in San Diego is a great accomplishment.”

Encinitas is Going Green

Linda — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 22:06:45 +0000

Encinitas is Going Green!

The city of Encinitas is going green and they are proud of it. In an effort to transition the city’s fleet to alternative fuel vehicles, the city acquired two hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) – a Honda Civic and Toyota Prius. The Honda Civic can get 650 miles on a tank of gas and the Toyota Prius can get 500 miles on a tank of gas. Hybrids are similar to normal cars and offer the same if not better performance than conventional cars. The city has purchased these two cars to show they are committed to do the right thing for the community.

The city is not stopping by only adding the two new cars to their fleet but they are also excited about a new recycle program at city Hall which reminds employees to recycle every time they throw trash out. The employee’s trash cans are being replaced with a clear trash can with a recycle logo on it. Also located in city hall is a battery recycling bin which is to further promote the disposal of waste.

The Encinitas city parks are being equipped with recycling-friendly trash cans. The city has purchased 100 recycling friendly trash cans for our City parks. The new containers will make it easy and convenient to recycle aluminum cans and plastic bottles.
