Public works department started major repairs on A Street in Castro Valley Wednesday where a huge slide along San Lorenzo Creek washed away part of the roadway during the New Years Eve storms.
Short term repairs will take about a month to complete with long term repairs estimated to take a few years at a cost of $6.5 million. Homeowners on the other side of the creek say answers about their properties are much harder to come by.
"Right now things are not working in our favor at all," said Shein. He says his homeowners insurance company denied the majority of the claim because most of the damage was all outside the house itself. He also applied for FEMA grants, but says so far has only been approved for $222 dollars in aid. "It's unfortunate. I do feel for them," said Alameda County Public Works Director John Medlock Jr."The force of the creek is pretty strong, you live on a creek and things happen."
Medlock says the work for the rest of this week will be clearing debris out of the creek, like the failed slabs of concrete walls and downed trees. The next step is bringing in heavy equipment to place rock and massive sandbags below the slide to stabilize the ground under the road. Medlock says the goal in the next month is to get at least one lane of A Street open heading northbound.
