From RPVListserver:
"Mark your calendars. The next EDCO sponsored paper/document shredding day for RPV residents is on Saturday, October 20, 2012 from 9 am to noon at the RPV City Hall parking area.
Similar to last year electronics waste will also be collected at the time. Free mulch (self serve and self haul) will be available for residents. This event is open and free to UWS and EDCO residential customers.
More information will be sent out by EDCO in September.
Thank you."
I am a fan of this and I hope our residents who could benefit from this, will take advantage of the service.
But wait, there's more news.
"Caltrans will be performing paving work along Western Avenue between Avenida Aprenda and 19th Street in both the north and south directions over the next several weeks.
Work is scheduled to be performed Monday through Thursday evenings between 7:00pm and 6:00am, beginning Monday October 1, 2012, and concluding Friday October 19th. Motorists are advised to use caution and alternate routes, when possible.
Staff of Rancho Palos Verdes"
Oh goody, Mark writes somewhat sarcastically. Not only should we stay off Western between 7-9 AM and between 2-7 PM, now we need to avoid Western from 7 PM to 6 AM, the next weekday.
Oh thank goodness we can use Western from 6 AM to 7 AM on weekdays and between 9AM and 2PM. They say it is only until October 19. But have you been by the Sanitation Districts pumping station lately, at Avenida Aprenda and Western? How's that temporary work going for you?
Our side of the street power outage was far longer than 'normal' today. It lasted over one hour. Usually it only lasts for a few minutes. At night when it happens, we just look across out street and not that the other side always has power. I thought this would all end when the work along Western Avenue was finished, but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
There are still those wishing to 'fight the good fight' concerning The Marymount College Facilities Expansion Project. The number of those continuing the fight is diminishing, though.
They are good souls, but it has long been time to allow that massive, years long project, fade away into memory and into files, for future reference.
Dr. Michael Brophy, the president of Marymount College wants a 20-year plan approved and the 463-space parking lot finished before he brings to our city a new, larger atheltic field proposal than the one approved of, back in 2010.
Wasn't watching the shuttle/747/2-Hornets flyover fun? It didn't follow the map laid out on KCBS TV. but it you weren't looking down at the ground, it was fairly tough to miss it.
Welcome to your new home, Endeavour.
I still have not heard or read anything regarding Ponte Vista at San Pedro, lately. I need to stick my nose further onto Internet sites that may contain more information.
The October concession promotion at our very own Starlight Cinemas involves free candy with the purchase of either a large fountain drink or a large 'ICEE' at the Terraces location.
When ordering a drink or 'ICEE' say to the person at concessions: "I'd like to sweeten the deal" and your reward will be free candy. This promotion lasts until October 31, a night where free candy will be distributed all over the place.
