PG&E warns of new power shutoffs in 7 Northern CA counties. See areas at risk

Pacific Gas and Electric Co. is warning that more than 600 customers in seven Northern California counties could lose electricity beginning Friday evening as strong, dry winds raise wildfire concerns, less than a week after widespread shutoffs left tens of thousands without power. The potential public safety power shutoffs could affect 644 customers in portions of Butte, Lake, Napa, Shasta, Solano, Sonoma and Yolo counties, according to PG&E’s latest estimates. But the possible outages are narrowly targeted, with the utility’s maps showing small, scattered areas in the northern Sierra Nevada foothills and remote sections of the Coast Ranges. In Butte County, possible shutoffs are concentrated east of Paradise and Magalia, around the Concow area. In Shasta County, the areas under consideration follow portions of the Highway 299 corridor near Round Mountain and Montgomery Creek. Closer to Sacramento, only small pockets of western Yolo County and Solano County near the Napa County line are at risk. The maps do not show potential shutoffs in Sacramento, Woodland, Davis or West Sacramento. PG&E placed portions of all seven counties under a PSPS watch for Friday and Saturday, meaning outages were considered likely because of forecast high winds and dry conditions. The utility said

Letter: Vote “Yes” on Measure S: Affordable Rents in San Pablo Keep Our Communities Healthy

Many San Pablo residents are worried. Corporate landlords and policy decisions at the state and federal levels have tipped the scales against renters. With inflation and rent continuing to rise, renters in the city worry about keeping roofs over their heads, about their parents being able to age in place, or their kids staying in the same schools. As a lifelong resident and Council member of San Pablo, and as a national public health expert who has worked deeply with San Pablo residents, we know these worries are well founded, and what they mean for the health of San Pablo. We have seen families, neighbors, and constituents be forced to move far away from their loved ones because of rent increases and unjust evictions. Some have had to make the impossible choice between refilling a medical prescription, or paying their rent and keeping their home. Housing insecurity impacts the most vulnerable in this city: families targeted by ICE, seniors on fixed incomes, people with disabilities, working moms, and others who make up the 58% of San Pablo households who are renters.
