I'm going to the next city council meeting to report and ask why the medians west of I805 are neglected and the medians East of the 805 are always in pristine condition. The mulch idea was a cheap way for the city to get rid of their grass but it's a mess. Not only weeds but trash is a constant issue on East Orange Ave.

Joaquin,

It is simple math. Those who live on the west side do not pay into HOA's & Mello Roos. Nor do we have the income to generate the taxes to pay for such amenities as weed-free medians and streets that are not cracking into thousands of pieces to the point that the children cannot even ride bikes safely in front of the houses (Malta, Sandstone, Marble are prime examples). The City will tell you that they only have five million dollars budgeted to repair/maintain the infrastructure maintenance list that requires at least twelve million dollars to just catch up on the most dire repairs. They do not see the dandelions and tumble weeds growing on Orange Ave as a "dire repair". Maybe when one of those tumbleweeds break loose and cause an accident will the City look at the situation. Until then look at it as Mother Nature doing what she does best, filling up empty neglected space.

Still there. I was going to report it, until I saw your report. Looks awful. They should have put the black plastic use in gardening before putting the bark. That will it prevent the weed from growing. Back in the day used to be nice and beautiful. It almost looked like Eastlake back in the day. Not sure what is been done with our property taxes. If they need more funds, we should vote to increase it as we did to have our street fix. Is sad that this part of Chula Vista is getting awful every year. On top of that, according with the City our taxes increase due to property value, when this kind of issues are devaluating it. :( Hopefully it gets fix.

The weeds have finally benn cut. It only took about 5 months. Smh.

And can they please trim the dead and dying palm fronds that are dangling into the traffic lanes?

Don't hold your breath

I believe in miracles!
