The city of San Diego’s streets division is continuing to resurface roads in Del Cerro, all on the west side of College Avenue.
The most recent are Arno Drive, Helena Place, Genoa Drive, Capri Drive, and Rockhurst Drive.
The other streets surrounding those work areas have been slurry sealed in the past few months, with the exception of Adobe Falls, which has a cement surface.
Two projects in the works
The Friends of Del Cerro community nonprofit group continues to work successfully on their two major projects.
One is fundraising to replace the commemorative brick area adjacent to the playground adjacent to the playground at the Princess Del Cerro Park on Wenrich Drive, in a joint project in collaboration with the city of San Diego’s Parks and Recreation Department.
The sidewalk by the playground needs to be replaced due to tree roots causing a safety hazard by lifting portions of the sidewalk. When the playground was significantly upgraded about 25 years ago, the majority of the playground and the adjacent sidewalk were funded through a community fundraiser by selling commemorative bricks, which are in front of the playground.
The city was going to make the necessary repairs and then cement over the entire sidewalk, but gave FODC the opportunity to raise funds to replace the commemorative brick area while the city replaced the remaining cement sidewalk area.
Anyone may donate $250 for an 8” X 8” commemorative brick, which will offer six lines of text with 18 characters or spaces on each line, or donate $150 for a 4” X 8” brick with three lines of text with 18 characters or spaces. More information can be found here.
The second project is gathering 837 signatures from Del Cerro property owners to require the city to conduct an election for or against establishing the “Enhance Del Cerro Maintenance Assessment District.”
The city allocates a minimal amount of funding to maintain city property in residential communities, which includes parks and medians.
All communities established after those within the Navajo Community, Grantville, Allied Gardens, Del Cerro, and San Carlos, had a Maintenance Assessment District established as a requirement of the new community, such as Tierrasanta, Rancho Bernardo, and Rancho Penasquitos.

On Saturday, April 4, District 7 councilmember Raul Campillo held a district-wide household recycling event. For the Navajo Community, it was held at the Allied Gardens Recreation Center. 40-foot dumpsters were filled during the event at the AGRC.
The FODC also supported the Hearst Elementary Foundation’s annual Fundraising Bash held last month. The FODC donated three commemorative bricks, which will be placed in the brick sidewalk adjacent to the playground at Princess Del Cerro Park.
