The San Bernardino Sun is reporting that residents of a neighborhood flooded on December 22 have been asking the City of Highland for a block wall on Summertrail Place at Highland Avenue since 2004.
"Mayor Larry McCallon said the Planning Commission considered capping Summertrail Place off at Highland Avenue but opted not to because it would leave the neighborhood with too few points of entry and exit."

Fees Waived, NPG Program Expanded Following Storms
According to a post-storm progress report on City of Highland's website, the City Council met in an emergency meeting on December 30th and approved waiving city charges for Planning, Engineering, Building & Safety, and related Development Impact Fees for repairs to structures damaged by the flooding, mud and debris flows.
In addition, the boundaries of the Highland Redevelopment Agency's Neighborhood Pride Grant (NPG) Program have been expanded to include the Village area. This program offers loans of up to $25,000 for owner occupied properties. The loans will be forgiven over a 5-year period if the property remains occupied by the owner as their principal place of residence.
