Staff report RED BLUFF A power outage Thursday morning in the Red Bank area west of Red Bluff was caused by a wire down, causing a failed connection of the power line near Wilder Road and Live Oak Road. The outage, which was re- ported at 7:34 a.m., impacted 828 customers at the onset of the outage, but the majority of customers had their power restored by about 8:10 a.m., said PG&E spokesman Paul Moreno. One customer remained without power a bit longer with power restored sometime between 11 a.m. and noon. No other outages were listed in Tehama County on the PG&E website.

ELECTRICITY Powerrestored a er Thursday morning outage By Julie Zeeb jzeeb@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Zeeb on Twitter RED BLUFF The 11 Days of Round-Up that accompany the Red Bluff Round-Up Rodeo offi- cially started with the Cowboy Coffee mixer event Thursday at the Round-Up Museum. "We have a great crowd here and I'm thankful you're here to help kick off the 11 Days of Round-Up," said Red Bluff-Te- hama County Chamber of Com- merce CEO Dave Gowan. "The Red Bluff Round-Up is amazing, 96 years now and we're nearing 100. That will be quite a party. It always is." What is especially significant about the event is the way the entire community becomes in- volved and wrapped up into the event, Gowan said. "The people here are what makes it what it is," said Round- Up Association President John Trede. "We have 15 directors, but it wouldn't be close to suc- cessful without everyone here and all that come with it." Trede talked about the ro- deo and the importance of get- ting the youth involved, which is part of why the association added mutton bustin' to Fri- day last year and the wild pony races. This year, the event will have mutton bustin' Friday and Sunday. Round-Up Director Corky Kramer gave away two tickets to the Granger Smith concert on Saturday, where Red Bluff native Chad Bushnell will open, to So- fia Oropeza for knowing that Smith also goes by the stage name of Earl Dibble Jr. Round-Up manager James Miller thanked the crowd for at- tending, saying that ticket sales are strong and all the local ho- tels are full. The tickets for the Granger Smith concert are al- most sold out. During the event Amanda Jenkins and Kristen Gray pre- sented awards for the business decorating contest. Grand prizes are as follows: Overall, Tehama Country Vis- itor Center; Interpretation of Theme, Brookdale Red Bluff; Creativity, Red Bluff Vision; Most Interactive and Fun, A&R Meats; Best Historic Interpreta- tion and Bribe, Wells Fargo. Participation awards were given to Banner Bank, Corner- stone Community Bank, Job Training Center and Washing- ton Street Productions, Liberty Law APC, Rockin' R Restau- rant, Tehama County Library, The California Parks Company, The Darkside and Tobin & As- sociates.

Lou Aviles Thursday at Cowboy Coffee. By Heather Hoelscher hhoelscher@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Heather on Twitter CORNING The City Council voted 3-2 to delay the Street Paving Proj- ect until a priority list is made, with the most travelled roads in the worst shape slated to be re- paired first. The gas tax funded project, with Divisadero and El Verano avenues being proposed as the first to be repaved Tuesday, will be brought back to the council af- ter a plan is put in place with an itemized list of streets to be re- paired first. Councilwoman Darlene Dick- ison was in favor of authoriz- ing Public Works Director Dawn Grine to proceed with plans and specifications, solicit bids and ap- propriate funding, in the amount of $206,000, due to receiving many complaints about the roads over the years. But two council- men and Mayor Douglas Hatley Jr. voted no on the matter. Councilmen Robert Snow and Dave Linnet asked for a list of roads that need improvements in order to make an informed deci- sion on which roads need repav- ing sooner. Linnet said he would like to see a priority list made because Di- visadero and El Verano avenues see very little traffic. He said he has received more complaints about the condition of other streets, such as Tehama Street, which sees a lot school traffic. "I rather hold off on spend- ing the $206,000 because I think there are a lot of streets with a lot more traffic that could use it," Linnet said. Grine said she and City Engi- neer Ed Anderson will be putting together a 10-year plan to be in- corporated in the city's capital improvement plan. The repaving plan will include improving such roads as Chicago and Toomes av- enues, among others. Due in part to the recent storms certain streets have dete- riorated faster and are worse now than before. The Public Works Department would like to have a priority list available so the council knows ahead of time how many streets, which streets and which portion of streets will be addressed, Grine said. Divisidero Avenue was chosen as one of the first streets to be re- paved because its curbs and gut- ters are breaking, Grine said. The curbs that are broken have caused water to sit in the street, making it deteriorate faster.
