Willits council hears storm damage reports
Willits council hears storm damage reports as PG&E credits a check valve for gas safety while a large slide near Hopland disrupts pipe by bypass work. Water line damage and a 100 foot span require repairs. City plans a watch, evacuee readiness, and standby generator use. Council also backs Mendocino Community College siting and approves a police car bid. It defers card room extension and 4-H rodeo ground space, and creates a restricted parking zone before the March 15 election.
