First Street update
First Street in Gilroy between Monterey Road and Santa Teresa Boulevard is turning into a pot-holed disaster that needs immediate repaving. While I recognize that because it is Hwy. 152, this section of road is under the control of Caltrans, probably meaning nothing will happen for the next five years. Too bad that our beloved City Council appears to be powerless to exercise any influence on Caltrans to fix this section of road before it deteriorates further and makes driving it more unsafe. I'm wondering when First Street is going to be fixed.
