Neighbors Meeting Make a Difference

Residents of the B-BAR-H Ranch gathered at the home of Steve Grasha on February 9, 2012 to discuss neighborhood items and plan for the future of their community. 

The B-BAR-H Ranch located in an unincorporated section of Riverside County has a history all of its own, and the residents who own new homes in the B-BAR-H Ranch want to maintain the integrity of their community.  The residents of the B-BAR-H Ranch get involved by meeting regularly to discuss current affairs.  The hot item on the minds of many residents is the project promised to them by the Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD) and Riverside County Transportation Department.  

Beginning in March, 2012, there will be new water pipelines installed by the CVWD.  Following the water pipe installation, Riverside County Transportation Department will provide new surfaces to all the roads located within the north and south sides of the B-BAR-H Ranch.  

Once roads are brought up to county standards, all the roads within the B-BAR-H Ranch will become Riverside County maintained roads. 

Residents extend a special thanks to County Officials for making this project a reality.  Special thanks are extended to Supervisor Marion Ashley, Supervisor John Benoit, Mojahed Salama (Riverside County Transportation Dept.), Amer Hassouneh (CVWD),  Steve Hernandez, Brenda Freeman, and the many others who helped.  

The project scheduled to begin in March 2012 is to be completed by July 2012.

We Don't Want to Lose CSA 115 Road Cleaning!!!!

By Anonymous, South B-BAR-H Ranch Resident

It took B-BAR-H Residents and Community Leaders over a year of debate with Riverside County to finally get roads cleared of built up sand, stone and debris. Street sweepers/cleaners arrived immediately once the document defining road maintenance was located.  

Miscellaneous extended road maintenance -- Street Cleaning -- is defined in the Resolution of Intention and currently part of the taxes we pay.

The CSA 115 Resolution of Intention defines Road Maintenance for B-BAR-H Ranch:

CSA 115 Resolution of Intention
defining Road Maintenance

We don't want to lose street cleaning, and the County may take it away.  Under the current CSA 115 tax structure the B-BAR-H Ranch receives:

• Miscellaneous Extended Road Maintenance
• Road Improvement 
• Lighting (to pay an electric bill and replace bulbs)

Think carefully before changing any of the current CSA 115 tax structure until Riverside County presents a full and accurate report of the past and a detailed plan for the future of our roads.  As a resident of the ranch for many years, it's important to see how much money has been collected and how it's been spent. 

The CSA 115 Law currently protects the roads in our community.  Please take decisions to modify CSA 115 as it is defined today seriously.  We don't want to lose Miscellaneous Extended Road Maintenance and Road Improvement!
