Curt Haven, Rancho Cordova’s Founding Father

If you seek to understand the heart of Rancho Cordova, look no further than Curt Haven. For 25 years, Curt has been where it beats.

 

Always urging Rancho Cordova to raise standards and be better, Curt carried the heartbeat to the incorporation campaign, where he provided the passion, leadership and tenacity to see it through, despite all odds stacked against success. Rancho Cordova would not be a city today if not for Curt.

 

Curt retired from the City of Rancho Cordova on Feb. 1 after working for and behalf of citizens for nearly three decades. Over those years, Curt has helped countless individuals and businesses in large and small ways. Nobody deserves a “lifetime of achievement award” more than him.  

 

Curt has been at the forefront of activities to improve neighborhoods, build business and lift up Rancho Cordova’s image as a resident, as executive director of the Rancho Cordova Chamber of Commerce, president of the Mills Ranch Homeowners Association, elected member of the Cordova Recreation and Park District Board of Directors, and finally as the first employee of the City of Rancho Cordova.
