Representative Bob Ybarra reported on the January 2017 Snow Storm, with photos ___
The storm overwhelmed everyone in the valley. Too
much snow fell in a short period of time and not enough choices of places to stack
the volume of the white-stuff.

Ken Willis' crew nice job cleaning up the streets in Sugarloaf for several days.

I have adopted the fire hydrant at the corner of Eucalyptus and Imperial Avenue. The snow-plowers buried fire hydrants. At the Sugarloaf Road Commission meeting, I asked Reese Troublefield to pass on a request to our contracted snow-plowers, to not bury our hydrants. They are essential in emergencies. It is very difficult to clear the frozen ice berms in front of the hydrants. Troublefield said he would relay the request to Ken Willis Construction, our snow plow providers.
