After speaking with the City of Corona representatives it has become clear that the San Ramon gate violates City ordinances which do not allow gates on public property. This gate was placed on San Ramon many years ago when Green River Road was one lane going each way.

It was placed there to stop commuters who would come up off Green River on Canyon Crest, Oakridge Drive and Circle around to Dominguez Ranch road to avoid traffic. The fact is that times have changed; the original purpose of this gate is obsolete.

Open access to Public Roads is essential and an overriding fact why this gate needs to be removed; there are hundreds of home owners and residents in Sierra Del Oro inconvenienced by this gate. Not to mention the wasted time and gasoline when residents are forced to drive 2-3 extra miles each way to and from work, school etc. The increased traffic jam on Green River Road has not only created an inconvenience but is dangerous for pedestrians crossing the street.

If you agree with the purpose and intention of this petition, please support the cause by signing the petition below. Thank you.
