Dear Shingle Springs Residents and Rural Lifestyle Supporters,
Happy New Year to you and your family!
As you may recall, the Shingle Springs Community Alliance (SSCA) is appealing the Planning Commission’s approval of the ARCO gas station project at Durock Road and South Shingle Road. It is SSCA’s position that the ARCO station or any other business on that property should not be permitted at least until after road improvements are completed to relieve the significant traffic congestion that we are all dealing with.
The County has informed us that our appeal will be in front of the Board of Supervisors on Tuesday, February 3 at 1:00 PM. The Board of Supervisors is the final decision-making body, so please mark your calendar and plan to attend if possible. We will also share more information in the coming weeks about how written comments can be submitted.
We also need your help in another way. Shingle Springs community members know that current traffic at the Highway 50/Ponderosa/South Shingle interchange is unacceptable. But not all of the Supervisors live in Shingle Springs, and we need to make sure they know too. The best way to educate them is to show them. Therefore, we are asking the community to share images and videos that demonstrate poor and/or unsafe conditions in and around the interchange.
Please send images and videos to info@shinglespringscommunityalliance.com by Monday, January 19. If files are too large to send via email, please let us know and we will arrange an alternative delivery method. When recording, please do so safely and do not record using a handheld device while driving. Please note that by submitting photos and materials, you consent to the Shingle Springs Community Alliance sharing them with the Supervisors and public as part of our appeal.
Please stay tuned for more information, and thank you for your assistance!
