[SDCBC] 56 bike path report

[Kathy Keehan]

It's actually not the community's problem. If it was, it would be fixed by
now. :-)

My understanding is that the City of San Diego is responsible for the
sedimentation ponds further down the creek, which are now full and need
dredged (or some other maintenance activity - I'm not exactly sure.) The
blockage further down the creek is what is causing the water to back up over
the path. 

I'll forward the email to Brad Jacobson, the person in charge of this
project at the City, to see what the status is.

That stretch is located in a home development with a gulf course.  They are
responsible for this water problem on a public bike trail, yet no one has
enforced it.  It has been in this state for over two years and in winter
when we have any rain, it is a river with algae underneath. Kind of like
snow with ice underneath if you are from snow country.  It is about time
that someone makes the gulf course/homeowners correct this problem. 

 

BTW, I fell there last year as well as my husband.  Very slick.

On my latest trek down the 56 bike path the other day, I noticed that
a steady small stream is crossing the weir.  There has been no more 
than about 2 feet of wet stuff for the past week, but the steady
state is causing the algae to grow, which will make for a slick
surface.  The 2 foot wide stream BTW is the narrow portion, it is
much wider, closer to the slimy source.  (that has got to be some 
sort of mosquito massive breeding ground)
