To The Town Counsel -
I live in the area covered by the Old Blackhawk Specific Plan. Currently, there is only one evacuation route which is the
intersection of Old Blackhawk and Camino Tassajara. San Ramon Valley Fire Protection District Order 29, Section
501.1.2.1 requires a minimum of 2 access roads, i.e.
evacuation routes. See, https://www.firedepartment.org/home/showdocument?id=1682.
I attended a Planning Commission meeting in 2018 and one of the Commissioners believed that the 2nd route was at
the end of Old Blackhawk or on the dirt road off Ambience Way. Neither of these are exits.
I wrote to the Danville Planning Department on July 19, 2019, January 27, 2020 and June 10, 2020 and to the Town
Manager's Office on August 13, 2020 and on August 21, 2020 asking for information on the 2nd evacuation route, but
have received no response to any of these inquiries. This is unacceptable.
Please provide us with the 2nd Evacuation Routes and what the Plan is to evacuate this area. For example, there is a
bridge near Abigail Place. This appears to be an evacuation route but there are posts on the bridge. The 2 possible exits
- 1 has a locked fence and the other has posts. If this is the 2nd evacuation route, please provide detailed instructions
on how these obstructions will be removed in the event of a needed evacuation.
Thank you.
