Valley Springs, CA...CHP is reporting a tow truck vs the Good Friends Restaurant in Valley Springs. Not sure what set the tow truck off. Maybe the "Tow Trucks On Cables Only" sign or "Wreckers Only, No Flatbeds Allowed". The truck was reportedly overheard saying "But I'm a "Service Truck"! The discussion elevated when the restaurant replied that jumping a dead battery does not qualify as service. Not sure but please use caution in the area...

Calaveras County Sheriff Rick DiBasilio On Marijuana & Calaveras Public Safety |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 03/27/2017 03:32 PM
|
San Andreas, CA...I have been repeatedly asked about Marijuana and the safety of Calaveras citizens. Last year the voters of California chose to decriminalize possession of small amounts of marijuana and to allow the small scale cultivation of marijuana. In addition, marijuana cultivation has now become a land use issue based upon decisions by the voters and the Board of Supervisors. In 2016, the previous Calaveras County Board of Supervisors chose to allow large commercial cultivation inside of residential areas of Calaveras County through an “Urgency Ordinance.”
