LETTER: City should spend more money on repaving Citrus Heights roads

Letter submitted by Citrus Heights resident Franco Rozic–
[RE: Why isn’t gas tax money going to repave major streets in Citrus Heights? June 13th, Q&A]When will the southern leg of Lichen Drive be resurfaced? It is crumbling apart and it’s hard to imagine any other residential street being in worse condition.

Also, I think the city needs to think of ways to raise more income for road maintenance, because the SB 1 funding clearly isn’t going to be nearly enough. Roseville Road needs a re-engineering project and a repave to match the Roseville city section of it. A southbound turn lane at Whyte Avenue and Roseville Road would be helpful too, to start it off in pieces.

Maybe we need more Democrats on the City Council. You need to spend money to attract money to your city. It’s not all about just saving money and keeping taxes low as possible.
