Incident comes as city of San Diego has backlog of streetlight repairs
A light pole that fell at La Jolla Cove in high winds during recent stormy weather may mean darkened streets there for at least the foreseeable future.La Jolla Light, a publication of the U-T Community Press, this week that it will be a few weeks until crews get to the site to determine whether any maintenance must be done before the double-armed light can be replaced.
“Our staff might be back in the area within two to four weeks to perform other types of maintenance, which could allow us to install the pole replacement,” Santacroce said. “We will need to evaluate the pole to determine if we have the pole in inventory to perform the repairs.”The pole toppled in late February from a sidewalk next to Scripps Park immediately above La Jolla Cove and damaged a section of fencing and some plants below. The pole has since been hauled away.
Most troubling to some people who frequent the area is the lack of light illuminating the street and the stairs leading to The Cove. The nearest light pole to the one that fell is halfway up Coast Boulevard to the north, in front of the La Jolla Bay Homes on the former Green Dragon Colony site. The next-nearest light is almost all the way up the street in the other direction, near Prospect Street.
Area resident Bill Robbins said some beachgoers stepped on glass after the pole fell and that people who swim in the early morning have had trouble seeing where the water meets the stairs.Robbins raised the issue during the La Jolla Parks & Beaches board meeting Feb. 27, saying: “I would like you folks to help me bury the city in Get It Done . People are telling me how dark it is down there, especially on the stairs. We need to get this moved up as a priority.
