Plans Underway For Temporary Bridge On Blagen Road For White Pines & Moose Lodge Public Access!
Posted by: thepinetree on 02/28/2017 01:20 PM
San Andreas, CA...The Calaveras County Board of Supervisors is holding a regular meeting today. Before they broke for lunch they passed the resolution continuing a local emergency for storm related damage to our local infrastructure. This includes the damage to Blagen Road that has prevented access to the Moose Lodge and is threatening a delay of White Pines Park from opening for normal operations this summer. Many community members spoke of the significant impacts to the community if repairs are not made soon. These are fiscal as well as public safety concerns if Ebbetts Pass Fire and other agencies cannot use the bridge for medical aids or fire response. The Board of Supervisors instructed the public works department to pursue a temporary bridge that is load rated for emergency vehicles and also for general public use...
Arnold, CA...Due to the failure of a main pressure-reducing valve in the old Meadowmont Golf Course at around 11:30 a.m. Tuesday Feb. 28, about 500 to 1,000 customers in the Meadowmont area are experiencing a water outage. CCWD crews are assessing the problem and will begin making repairs as soon as possible. The District does not have an estimate of when repairs will be complete at this time.
