Cleanup continues in Palmdale after Tropical Storm Hilary

PALMDALE — Maintenance crews are cleaning up Palmdale after Tropical Storm Hilary’s record-setting rainfall, including 5.83 inches at Anaverde Park, 5.13 inches at Quinones Park, 4.38 inches at Desert Sands Park and 4.79 inches at Pelona Vista Park, city officials said.

Sam Yellen Park and Amargosa Creek Trail experienced heavy erosion and will remain closed until further notice, while Desert Sands and Foothill Parks are expected to open in time for the weekend, city officials said in a news release.

All athletic fields are closed until at least Thursday, Aug. 24. Residents are asked not to trespass if gates are closed or caution tape is in place.  Although the fields are closed, most Palmdale parks are open for play and recreation in non-field areas, including Domenic Massari, Palmdale Oasis, Joshua Hills, William J. McAdam, Pelona Vista, Anaverde, Rancho Vista, and Marie Kerr.

City officials said 10th Street East, north of Avenue P, will remain closed until further notice. As maintenance teams continue to clear debris and mud from roads and streets, residents can help by keeping vehicles off impacted roadways and safely away from crews as they work. Maintenance issues can be reported by calling 661-267-5338 or online at www.cityofpalmdaleca.gov/report, and selecting the “Maintenance Issues” button.

    My sister remembers you timmy, you think people don’t remember. Are you trying to say that you just passed out Christmas cards when you robbed those banks. Then your begging cup is fiction then.

    LOLOLOLOL…what a lying sack you are. She ‘remembers me’ from where? Did you send her that pic of Senator Tim Scott to see if she recognized me? MAYBE you have a sister. MAYBE you even have a sister that worked at a bank. MAYBE you even have a sister that was working as a teller and got robbed. Odds that that happened to be a bank that I robbed…call it 50 in 20,000. And of the tellers in banks that I did rob there are a VERY limited number who can say with any certainty it was me, since I was only convicted for a small portion. (plea agreement)

    You’re just flat lying here.

    Yes it’s clear the moderator here lets Tim Scott say anything bogus or not. I did show at Jackie Robinson 2pm, four women in the office, creek was dry, gym closed AC out. More proof than some make believe phone. Why is he allowed to make obvious false claims and call people cowards.

      LOL…because I have a track record of showing up and you’ve been caught in obvious lies? But that’s neither here nor there.

      Your short notice slapdash nonsense unsurprisingly didn’t work out. I called the park since I couldn’t get there on a half hour notice and people I know are at work at 2PM, but the woman I talked to didn’t find you. Now if you really want to meet try my way. It actually works.

    So ends another “Tim and the keyboard warrior” adventure. I couldn’t make it out to Sun Village on such short notice, and at 2PM on a Thursday my friends were all at work, which I assume is where Templer was. I gave my best rap to the nice P&R person that answered the phone and she was all set to go get my ‘friend’ from the basketball courts so I could tell them why I couldn’t make it out there to play…but surprise there was no one out there.

      To be honest, flood damage is always way worse on the west side. The developers over there did a lot of building in the flood channels coming off the mountains. The only flood fatality I can recall ever was on the west side.

        When it’s raining hard like it was during the recent storm and the microburst several years ago, people should not be on the roads unless they absolutely have to.

          Honestly, they should not be on the roads period. The fact that we (the big we, ‘society,’ or whatever) have this ‘well, I had to go to work,’ or ‘I planned so poorly that my only food option was to get take out,’ or an endless range of ‘absolutely had to’ reasons is a genuine problem.

          Then add in that there are sure to be more than a handful of ‘but muh freedums’ wingnuts that will drive around just to prove that they can’t be arsed about public safety and things slide downhill fast.

            How is that ‘obvious’?

            What is obvious is that you have no concern about getting caught in your bald faced lies.

            Tell us, liar, what should make anyone believe that out of the hundreds of banks robbed every week YOUR sister ‘just happened’ to be working in a bank I robbed? Tell us, liar, how you identified me as that particular robber?

            Or just tell us you made that up because you were tired of getting jobbed at every turn but as your ‘conscience’ said you are in so deep you can’t find a way out.

She’s led a far more purposeful life than you. You’re. Always asking people on here to meet and calling “coward” I believe his name was Mike here just days ago. Well I’ll call the place you call the time (Jackie Robinson Park) that’s where I play ball. No honey and marshmallow BS I’m not into that I was just kidding thing.

            You claim there are no positive reviews of my book, but another person who posts right here has said that they liked it and I thanked them for their review. A clear lie on your part.

            You made a statement about my author bio pic on Google, and though I haven’t checked today to see if something changed as far as I know Google Books is the only major bookseller that doesn’t carry my book, so you probably lied.

            Short answer stupid, you are talking to a bank robber. If I’m ever faced with the classic “beg, borrow, or steal” we already know what my choice is.

            Longer answer, writing a book involved a 5000 word deadline with my editor EVERY week for most of a year. It was not only a lot harder than robbing banks, I would go back to just about any of the myriad legal ways I have made money before I would write a book if I was just in need of money.

            You not only are too boring, you wouldn’t have the ability or stamina, so you should probably stop making yourself look like a weak sauce whiner and move on to something you know something about.

            Or just go back to spinning bald faced lies about your sister, that was kinda funny.

            Now, we tried this your way and unsurprisingly your slap dash nonsense failed. So, cool, I’ll tell you the same thing I’d have said on the phone.

            “Slap dash” I was there maybe a minute or two late because my wife sensed something was and went with me. You just made some phone call to the office.. why would I want to sit down for coffee. No honey and marshmallows here.

          My wife went with because she knows and knew something was up. And knows I don’t play.. the thing that wasn’t there was you or your imaginary friends.

            So you “don’t play” and figured you’d start a fight with your friendly witness in attendance? I gave you credit for showing up, but now I see you are even more of a coward than I was thinking.

            There calling me a coward again, she only went because after being together 35yrs she new I was up to something, she a witness you were never going to show I know that. You did a phone I just needed to be there. I told her I was going to Lowe’s couldn’t shake her, I’m only scared of me just so you know, you keep calling me a coward keep digging. You phoned it in.

            I even left her car out of eye sight, I didn’t tell what was up until we got home. Because I can’t lie to her. So keep hurling your insults and assumptions. All this BS from you and you want to by me coffee. You’re a piece

            Of course you “knew I wouldn’t show”…I had eight minutes notice and it’s a twenty minute drive. Very heroic of you to come up with such a plan. And, no, I’m not interested in going to prison over some clown like you, so I’m not going to let you start a fight with me in a park, of all places. Especially a park where you are a regular and you are bringing your wife along as another witness in case your friends aren’t enough.

            If you ever wanted a plan that wasn’t stupid and guaranteed to land someone in jail I’d be happy to discuss some ideas with you. Let me know.

            LOL…”couldn’t shake her.” Are you really so stupid that you think you can get in a fight in a park, so one will call the cops, and your wife will never know that you didn’t just go to Lowe’s? Seriously? How have you lived long enough to be with her 35 years?

            By the way you’ve convinced me you aren’t a coward, just naive and stupid and an absolute miracle that you aren’t in jail.
