On the agenda: wind
The city has called a special meeting at 3 p.m. tomorrow to proclaim a state of emergency due to the wind damage of two weeks ago. On Friday, Gov. Jerry Brown proclaimed a state of emergency for Los Angeles County and Rancho Cucamonga. The city has to adopt a resolution within seven days of the governor's declaration.
According to Mayor Dennis Michael, the city has suffered $2.5 million to $3 million worth of wind damage due to fallen trees, damaged sidewalks and other property damages.

$2.5 million to $3 million worth of wind damage due to fallen trees, damaged sidewalks and other property damages. How lucky that we had no death or series injuries.
It would have been so much less if it been taken taken care of long ago before the storm. I asked for it already in March. Mostly because it can also be a firehazard.
I live in Vintage Highland where there was too much of everything. On top of that we have to pay extra for the maintance of it.
Most homeowners know to leave a good space around what we plant. Also not to water to much because there is than no reason for the roots to go down. Planing big trees on a slop is no good idee. Of course the will fall over with just smal roots.
This is expencive but the good thing is that we got some of our wievs back.
My glass is half full.
