I sent an e-mail to Whittier's City Manager asking when the east launch ramp (potholes, rebar sticking up) was going to be repaired. Within minutes, he sent me a response. The following is his response (with his permission)......
"Thank you for your e-mail. Your input is very constructive and much appreciated.
Repairs to the east ramp are currently underway. We are continuing to prep the site and are waiting for a favorable combination of tides and weather to pour the concrete (hopefully Wednesday and Thursday of next week). It is a high priority project for us; we are certainly aware of and concerned by the condition of the ramp.
By the way, the east ramp is scheduled for complete replacement within the next couple of years and we plan to have a tractor-assisted launch operation at the head of Passage Canal next year.
