Good morning, Stockton.
🏘️ Community

A copy is available at select businesses.
The Stockton Garden Club is set to host its inaugural Rose Garden Tour on Saturday, Apr.
25, from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Visitors can explore five garden locations with a $25 ticket while raising funds for a local student scholarship (for horticulture programs).
🌲 Environment
Stockton is seeing easing rain as Northern California faces wet weather, with chain controls & reduced speeds on I-80 and Highway 50 due to heavy snow above 6000ft.
Commuters are advised to drive carefully as localized flooding and weather-related traffic incidents may continue.
California Department of Fish and Wildlife research suggests that giant nutria in the Delta were possibly introduced intentionally after DNA tests linked them to populations in Oregon.
The invasive rodents are damaging sensitive vegetation while the department spends about $5 million yearly to control the species.
🏥 Health
A Public Citizen report released on April 21 found 83 California hospitals are at risk of service cuts, layoffs, or closures due to Medicaid funding cuts from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act — the list includes Stockton’s Dameron Hospital.
The report is descriptive rather than predictive of future closures.
