Thank you for that information. A drunk driver apparently hit a power line and knocked out power to the paseo for upwards of 12 hours for some people. This affected over 2000 people. The guy made a stupid mistake but damn he is in a world of trouble if they seek reimbursement and damages.

I know this doesn’t happen that much but it does happen— it’s something that wouldn’t if utility lines were underground. Not mention storms bringing them down and a huge beautification factor.

A reasonable plan to bury utility lines on new road construction, full reconstruction(not simple resurfacing), and special projects to bury them in high profile districts like the Paseo. I’ll be back next year to rant about this issue again.
