Folsom Lake College Satellite Campus Coming to Folsom Boulevard

It will replace First Value Inn in Rancho Cordova.

First Value Inn on Folsom Boulevard will be demolished next week and in its place will be a Folsom Lake College Satellite Campus. 

A "demolition party" at 9 a.m. July 2 will kick off the changes in Rancho Cordova. It will be part of the city's 10th anniversary and "will celebrate the long-awaited demolition of the First Value Inn, located at 10271 Folsom Boulevard, and three adjacent buildings," according to a press release. 

“This is a wonderful birthday present from the Los Rios Community College District to the City of Rancho Cordova!” said Rancho Cordova Mayor Linda Budge, in a press release.  “We appreciate their partnering with us to bring a new home for higher education to Rancho Cordova.”

First Value Inn has been vacant for a while now and has often been illegally inhabited. It was also the site of multiple fires, according to the city. 

In addition to the former inn, the American Home Makeover (formerly Cordova Travel), an outdoor car wash and check-cashing buildings will all be torn down.
