Costco has opened its largest store in California in Brentwood, generating excitement across Northern California. The grand opening, which attracted many shoppers, provides limited items and job opportunities. Mayor Susannah Meyer highlighted the store's economic benefits, noting it could generate at least $1 million in tax revenue yearly, essential for maintaining local parks and roads. The store's development also involved infrastructure improvements, demonstrating its significance to the community. Shoppers displayed a mix of interests, including specialty whiskeys and everyday items.
"I mean it's a really big deal for us, the economic boost and the jobs, we were just talking to people who said 400 jobs, local jobs, that's fantastic!"
"People always, they don't necessarily understand that these kinds of revenues are going to help with the streets, and all the maintenance of all the parks and those sorts of things so it does, it really means something to us, it's going to help us be able to keep that quality of life that everyone wants to move here for."
