24th Street: No Build Alternative

STOP the proposed expansion of 24th Street.

Why is this important?

There are two meeting scheduled for the public prior to the adoption of the proposed widening of 24th Street. The is the Plan A which takes the houses on the north side of street and walls it off. Plan B is to take the houses on the South side of the street. Plan C is to not to expand the street. That is the No Build Alternative. We support No Build Alternative. TRIP (Thomas Road Improvement Project) will be taking comments from the citizens before seeking approval with the City of Bakersfield Planning Commision scheduled for July 5, 2012. The project is expected to commence in 2013 if approved.
