ANA JV’s First Success: Clearing Landslides on Gardenias

On Monday, June 16, workers and trucks appeared on Gardenias street to clear the road of debris and landslides, and to clear drainage for the rainy season.

Previously as a neighborhood association, our requests to the city for this work went unheeded.  But as a Junta Vecinal, we made the official request throught the Department of CIty Participation.  Director Hector Gallegos helped organize a tour of the area in the week of June 10, and the next week city crews were at work.

This is a real example of what we can get done, neighbors working through ANA as the new Junta Vecinal to get action from the city.
