As CBS13 first reported last week, a gas leak was found on February 15 that forced management to ask Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) to shut off their gas supply to their community of nearly 200 homes until the park's contracted plumbers could make the gas line repairs needed.
This time, neighbors hoped it would not take this long to fix -- frustrated that they still have no hot water, heating, or use of their stoves and laundry.
Harris first reached out to CBS13 for help last week and since that story aired, Creekside Estates management has stepped up to provide mobile hot showers, portable heaters and a free food truck meal to its residents each night. Harris said she wanted to extend a thank you. She's grateful they are trying to help ease the burden.
"My bill last month was $61.41, this month it was $161.71. That's an increase of $100. I am very frugal with my utilities. I worked for SMUD for 31 years. I know how to conserve, and I know I did not run my heater that much. I think the gas leaks are causing all of our reads to go up. We are filling in for what is happening here," Diregolo said.
"Property owners have an obligation to do whatever is reasonably necessary to address a habitability issue. If the licensed contractor they hired to address the gas leak took immediate steps to resolve the issue and other leaks arose thereafter, the property owner isn't breaching its duties. The property owner hired the licensed professionals to address the issue and having the contractor return to address whatever issues remain is also reasonable," said attorney Karyne Ghantous.
Management on-site would not provide a comment to CBS13 when approached Friday and we did not get a response from the park's ownership group Hometown America when asked for an update on the status of the repairs.
