Get up to speed on what’s going on in Coronado with this video preview of the latest edition of the Coronado City Manager’s Weekly Update, as well as a sampling of the updates below. Read the full update on the City’s website.
- Design Review Commission Update: The first review of the modifications proposed by the Kleege Orange Avenue project bounded by Tenth Street and C Avenue was held on Wednesday, October 10, before the Design Review Commission. The Commission continued the item to a future meeting to allow the developer to provide more detailed answers to specific questions.
- Adaptive Signal Connectivity Issues: Recently, the interactive traffic signals installed along state Route 75 between City Hall and Naval Amphibious Base Coronado have been working intermittently. The wireless radio signal between the computers is being disrupted for unknown reasons. The City’s contractor on the project has been troubleshooting but has found no obvious reason for the dropped connection. The City plans to replace the modem as a possibly remedy. The best solution is to install a fiber optic connection. Higher than normal volumes have been seen in recent days If there are large volumes of traffic at the intersections, it will still back up regardless of the interactive signals. The adaptive system provides the most efficient flow possible.
- Spreckels Park Tree Failure: The Italian Stone pine tree at Spreckels park, estimated to be more than 100 years old, uprooted on September 19. The City has provided a summary of the arborist’s report on the failed pine. In short, the tree showed no obvious signs of stress or decline in its canopy. The most visible sign of the tree’s failure was the large structural roots that broke off near the base of the pine. Roots were visibly tangled and girdled within a short span of the pine’s root flare. The City is conducting evaluations of all trees at Spreckels Park to determine if further evaluation or action is required. The full summary can be found here.
