Good Morning! BE SAFE out there today!

Good morning, GratefulOne! It's possible that the "laundry room" might actually be an unpermitted Accessory Dwelling Unit/ Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU/JADU) under construction. If it was me, I'd request that Building & Safety look into this matter.

While ADUs themselves are not technically illegal, many owners don't want the hassle of creating safe living quarters, paying additional fees, reporting rental income, etc. And when owners are THAT negligent, they're often also careless about who they rent to.

SCE- the equipment exists that prevents wind caused sparks from igniting fires. BVES installed it a few years ago. SCE doesn't want to because it costs money out of their profits. Contact the PUC and complain. The more citizens that do the more likely they are to force SCE to comply or pay hefty fines.

Richardbo- true about Sund but I've been to council meetings where Putz stood for the citizens and was out voted by the self serving council members. Sadly it takes more than one decent politician to change things. Of course attending council meetings keeps the heat on the others and is effective. Have you been lately?

7:00 according to the chitty manager Eric Sund. He was in federal court when he was the chitty manager of Long Beach. TAKES THE MOST INEPT CHITTY COUNCIL TO RETAIN HIM. Putz lives up to his name.

@gratefulOne I thought maybe 8am is when they can legally start but we have SoCal gas working on our street and it feels like they start up around 7-7:30.

If there’s anyone awake that knows when construction noises are legally allowed to begin in the am, and how many days in a row is allowed. We are so fatigued from our newest ‘neighbors’ gaslighting about a laundry room being built in their garage. A laundry room doesn’t require 3 men, 10 hours a day for two weeks, does it? I can hear them moving lumber and setting up their tools and equipment right now for crying out loud. Thank you

Feeling bad for all the people on my block. Looks like the service vehicle (tractor) that SoCal Gas parked here has some issue with its horn or battery. Every 15 mins the tractor/service vehicle's horn blares (sounds like someone is holding down the horn).

Ironically, people suing them is exactly why they're shutting off the power during any wind events. People didn't use to be so sue happy. Now you can sue if someone looks at you wrong in public.

Doggie Daddy….been here over 30 years and we have not had a wildfire due to power lines and wind! It is a f$ck f$ck game because they were held accountable in other communities due to their rickety-rack equipment and lines! WE ALL NEED TO SUE THEM! BIG HUGE LAWSUIT because that is all these people understand!

Big Bear residents held prisoners by SCE. Sounds like a 3rd world country to me. Theres got to be a better way. Tell me what other towns go thru this on a basis as BB ?

They keep building circles no one wants instead of figuring out how to keep the power on!
