LOMPICO LOOSES PARK
LCC PRESIDENT SITES
LACK OF COMMUNITY INTEREST / INVOLVEMENT

I'm told that some people in the community don't feel that they benefit from the Lompico Community Center. The park is too far out of their way for them to use and that's all the LCC does.   My response is, if you don't put anything in to it, you're not going to get anything out of it.  

San Lorenzo Valley Schools are back in session so there are going to be more kids on the roads walking to and from the bus stop. Our roads are too narrow in a lot of cases for even two cars to pass each other, add a child walking on the side of the road and it could be a recipe for disaster.  Please slow down a bit, specially between the hours of 6am until 8am and 2pm until 4pm, Monday through Friday.   Another big concern is motorists passing school buses when the red lights are flashing. This is illegal on EVERY street in Lompico, Zayante and Felton (except for Mount Hermon Rd.), no matter which way you are traveling and even if the bus has pulled off the road.

When the lights are flashing you MUST treat it like a red light.

You STOP, and stay stopped, until the lights are turned off.

The Lompico Community Center would like to thank the following businesses and individuals for their generous donations.

Dear Friends,

The original Lompico Improvement Club was formed on July 16, 1928. Property was acquired through Mr. and Mrs. Coleman in 1929. The property was held in trust by the Colemans until a corporation was established in 1933. The Corporation, by it''s original articles were under an obligation to use the properties for the benefit and use of the residents.

You may have seen the box that went in a few weeks ago, across from the bus depot, and wondered what it was.

It's a new mailbox for the Lompico Community Center.

We decided to put one in for a couple of reasons. It's more convenient for us to collect the mail vs going to the post office box. Plus, residents will be able to drop donations and suggestions into the box and save on the cost of postage.

NOTE: If you do drop a donation in the mailbox please use a check or money order, not cash, for security reasons.

You may have noticed some cleanup happening across from the bus stop.

The last time I tried to level this area I ran into a concrete edge that, at the time, I thought was a curb. I later found out that it was actually the top of a retaining wall that had fallen over. This past Saturday I was able to uncover most of the retaining wall.

I'm told that this used to be where the Lompico Volunteer Fire Department had a carport structure for parking the fire trucks. (Side note: I'd be interested in any history or photos you may have about this)

WANTED

Information on the current location, owner and/or driver of a late model Green Volkswagen Jetta that was involved in a hit-and-run accident coming in to the Lompico canyon on Wednesday, October 3, 2007 at approximately 4:00pm.

This vehicle was being driven in a reckless manner which caused a multi-car accident after which the driver fled the scene.

The vehicle had California license plate 5XJU206 which, we have since learned, does not belong to it. It also sustained moderate damage to the passenger side.
