Storm damage has impacted our home, street or business; when can we expect repairs to be made to the County roadway adjacent to our facility?
Storm damaged roads are repaired in two ways: Emergency repairs, where there is loss of access for health and safety, or permanent repairs, where the general public health and safety are not in jeopardy and alternate routes are available. Emergency repairs are usually performed by County road crews within days or a week of the event, depending on the extent of the storm or disaster. Permanent repairs are normally accomplished as soon as authorized funding is allowed by the State of California Office of Emergency Services or the Federal Emergency Management Agency and can sometimes take up to several months or longer, depending upon the severity of the damage and funding availability.
