Save Our Community was founded in the movement to resist Wal-Mart's development in Rosemead, California. Now, it has become a general site for news, information, gossip, talk, and blogging about Rosemead. We also have stories about South San Gabriel, San Gabriel, Montebello, and occasionally about Pico Rivera, El Monte, South El Monte, Alhambra, Temple City, and other nearby communities. Your host is Todd. If you want a blog just sign up, get approved, and start writing. Good posts will be moved onto the home page.
Traffic Commission
At our rather sparsely attended meeting tonight, both of the preceding items were approved. For the second, we also discussed the possibility of making that stretch a dedicated right-turn-only lane. The narrowness of the potential lane could be an issue, but City Traffic Engineer Joanne Itagaki indicated that, pending Council approval of our action, she would check with CalTrans about that possibility.
Traffic Commission Meeting
Thanks for the report.
Traffic Commission Meetings
You're welcome. My plan is to keep doing these pre- and post-meeting reports, in hopes of increasing awareness, interest and participation. Guess I'll find out March 6th if it's working.
Striping approved
I am happy to report that during a lull in a rather eventful City Council meeting last night, the Council approved both striping measures proposals recommended by the Traffic Commission. There's no official timetable, but my hope is that they will be done by sometime in March. The Rosemead Blvd one is on my way home, and i would likely use that "lane" on City Hall nights, so I for one will be keeping an eye out.
