City of
Council OKs South G Street project in Lompoc
The Lompoc City Council accepted Haskell Construction Co. bid of 39075 to repave South G Street between Ocean and Cypress Avenues and install six planters. They cut colored stripes at the fire station to save costs and debated a full width extension past College to Airport Avenues due to a resident’s home at 201 East College. City Engineer Gustafson warned full width would require moving or demolishing the house and potential rent or purchase costs under relocation guidelines.
