Pruneyard Inn lets its hair down at ribbon-cutting
Fifty-four new units and one courtyard were unveiled at the Pruneyard Inn at last Thursday's ribbon-cutting ceremony. Construction began last summer and was completed earlier this month.
The 54 units are suites with king-size and double beds; all are outfitted with a television and VCR and Internet access. Eight of the 54 rooms have Jacuzzis, two have balconies and three are equipped for the hearing-impaired. All rooms are handicap-wheelchair accessible.
The courtyard is an open garden setting suitable for weddings, receptions and general relaxation.
The Pruneyard Inn, open since 1989, is owned by Wilson Cornerstone Associates.

Man who fled accident scene turns himself in
Campbell police reported that a man matching the description of the suspect in last week's July 4 hit and run injury-accident on Bascom Avenue has turned himself in.
After rear-ending a vehicle on Bascom Avenue and causing a three car injury-accident, a 20- to 30-year-old male fled the scene of the accident. Neighbors witnessed him park his wrecked car in the garage of a nearby residence, and resume fleeing in a different vehicle.
On July 5, Martin Wayne Frazee turned himself in for the crime.
Officer Dave Lowry of the Campbell Police Department booked Frazee on the charge of hit and run with an injury, a felony in the state of California.
Frazee's reasons for turning himself in were not released, but Captain Russ Patterson speculates that a neighborhood watch for the suspect and a guilty conscience may have infuenced his decision.
Frazee is no longer in custody, and judicial arrangements are pending.
