Drainage Problem Plagues Castroville Road Residents
About 600 residents along Castroville Road met with City Councilman Leo Mendosa and Associate City Manager Sam Granata Jr to press officials on chronic flooding after rains. Pedro Romero said water blocks road access near General McMotlen and 36th streets, forcing children to remove shoes to reach school. Romero noted a petition signed by 60 residents years ago yielded no action, while Granata promised study and possible improvements. Mothers with cars cope, but some families lack transport and must improvise to get children to school.
