As per 01 July 2020: Per Chapter 22.34.0340.(g) of the Diamond Bar Code of Ordinances, Parking, loading, storage, driveway and vehicle maneuvering areas shall be kept and maintained so as not to detract from the appearance of adjacent properties and to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the user, occupant, and general public. Areas shall be kept in a neat and clean condition, free of trash, debris or rubbish, and free of potholes, sinkholes, standing water, cracks and/or broken areas. Parking space and pavement striping and signs shall be repainted, refurbished and/or replaced when they become faded, damaged, or destroyed to an extent that they are no longer effective. Parking areas shall be periodically resurfaced or sealed to minimize seepage of water into the ground below. The attached are pictures of the parking lot at the condominium complex, Village at Diamond Bar located at 23653 Golden Springs Dr., Diamond Bar, CA 91765. As the pictures clearly show, multiple areas of the driveway and parking areas are not maintained whatsoever. There are many elderly and children that walk and play in the premises and is an urgent safety hazard. Not only is this a safety hazard, but there are also debris and rubbish throughout. The asphalt is so deteriorated that the ground is exposed as well. The parking areas have clearly not been maintained and have not been resurfaced or sealed in a long time. This is is also an environmental hazard, which would cause groundwater seepage below the surface causing damage and hazard to neighboring properties as the deterioration is in very close proximity. As a concerned resident of Diamond Bar, I would like the city to do their due diligence and investigate what is being done to remedy this clear violation, and please follow up with me with solid action.
