Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Placentia public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Sidewalk repair program
The council awarded a $209,584 contract to Ruiz Concrete and Paving to fix sidewalks citywide — a safety and walkability win for pedestrians.
Golden Avenue Bridge project cost increase
Utility delays pushed the Golden Avenue Bridge project past its original schedule, so the council added $302,848 to T.Y. Lin's construction management contract. Completion is now expected November 22, 2026.
Residential street rehabilitation project amendment
Residents of four streets near Kraemer Middle School say their roads have degraded to gravel and haven't been repaved since at least 1997, creating safety hazards for students on bikes and a neighborhood with only one way out. They submitted photos and a petition signed by 33-plus neighbors and asked to be prioritized ahead of a tentative 2028 schedule.
