During a recent government meeting, a resident raised urgent concerns regarding road safety and maintenance in their area, particularly focusing on a county-maintained road that has become increasingly hazardous. The resident, who experienced a house fire, emphasized the importance of the road's maintenance status when purchasing their property on the hill.

The resident presented a series of photographs illustrating the deteriorating condition of storm drains, which are currently clogged with debris, leading to water runoff issues. They noted that despite previous communications with Caltrans, which indicated that the county was responsible for cleaning the area, little action has been taken to address the problem.

The resident highlighted the dangers posed by gravel accumulation at the intersection with Highway 20, which obstructs visibility for drivers. They described a near-miss incident involving a CAL FIRE truck and expressed concern for the safety of residents, particularly when towing trailers. The resident's plea for immediate attention to the intersection was underscored by a tragic incident involving a neighbor who was involved in a serious accident at the same location.

The meeting concluded with a call for the county to prioritize road maintenance and safety measures, as the current conditions pose significant risks to the community.
