Friends of Healdsburg Memorial Bridge Healdsburg Memorial Bridge, a community treasure built in 1921, was salvaged and its rehabilitation
I am awaiting a reply from Senator Mike Mcguire relative to his prior request for my evaluation of the rehabilitation feasibility for the railroad bridge just above our Memorial Bridge. I have requested the inspection report for that bridge which is the first document required to make such an evaluation. I have yet to receive the report and have requested it more that once. - - - I will ask again. 🤠🤠ðŸ¤
