Item 8.01 - Other Events.

       On November 17, 2008, Temecula Valley Bancorp Inc. (the "Company") filed
a Definitive Proxy Statement ("Proxy Statement") on Schedule 14A with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The Proxy Statement was filed and
distributed in order to solicit the written consent of the Company's holders of
common stock of record on November 14, 2008 to amend the Company's Articles of
Incorporation (the "Amendment") to authorize the issuance of up to five million
shares of preferred stock. The consent of holders of at least a majority of the
outstanding shares of the Company's common stock was required to approve the
Amendment. As of February 13, 2009, the Company had not received a sufficient
number of written consents indicating approval of the Amendment. Due to the
cumbersome mechanics of extending the date in order to allow additional voting
time for the Company's shareholders, it is anticipated that this matter will be
addressed at the next meeting of the Company's shareholders.

       The information in this report is being furnished, not filed, pursuant to
Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, the
information in this report and Exhibit 99.1 of this report will not be
incorporated by reference into any of our filings, unless specifically
identified therein as being incorporated therein by reference.




                                    SIGNATURE

       Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
