| Arnold, CA...Last Friday, October 25th, Mrs. Furuya's bike went missing from the picnic table area. She rode it to school like always, & at 3:15, when she was ready to go home, the bike was gone. We got in our cars & searched everywhere we could think of, high & low, but came up empty. It's a powder blue 21-speed with disc brakes. The brand is Avalanche Nio, the bike wasn't locked, as Mrs. Furuya has been riding it to & from for many years & has never had a problem, not even a concern. She was very sad that afternoon... |

Higher Speeds Through Arnold Causing Concern ~Part One By John Hamilton |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 10/30/2013 12:28 PM
|
Arnold, CA....Recently speed limits though Arnold have been raised. In fact now as you head down the hill into Arnold it is 55 mph all the way to Giant Burger until it drops down to 35 mph before picking back up to 45mph through Arnold. One homeowner we spoke with who's driveway exits onto Hwy 4 across from Sarafina's actually drove to the Video Box Office across the street because he felt uncomfortable walking as he normally did in the past....
Above is now where the speed limits briefly drop from 55mph to 35mph before picking back up to 45 mph. These changes go directly against the Arnold Rural Livable Community Plan approved in 2008. Just click on the plan cover image above to see what was agreed on. |

Arnold, CA...Bear Valley Resorts held a very successful employment fair last Saturday and in reality they were already well on their way to being fully staffed and ready to go for this season.
