“The city recently put a cheap chip seal coating on our street near Las Animas School. For those who don't know what this is, it's a low cost way of preserving pavement.

And I mean everywhere, even in the garage and in our house. They have damaged some of our neighbors wood floors. We have called the city to come out and take a look at it and they say this is normal.

Nobody in the neighborhood is happy about this and the part that still amazes me is that the streets are only nine years old and did not even need to be sealed. There are much worse streets in Gilroy.”
