As you may know, Sand Hill Circle is a residential area consisting of a couple of hundred townhomes and condominiums. Inside our circle is 3000 Sand Hill Road, which is an office complex with several vibrant enterprises and a restaurant.

For all those reasons, it is important that Sand Hill Road remain open and well-maintained. It is my understanding that maintenance on Sand Hill Road has been recently cancelled due to the tunnel referenced below:

The Sand Hill Tunnel provides underground access for golf carts / members at the Sharon Heights Golf and Country Club (SHGCC) across Sand Hill Road. Although budget was previously identified for the assessment and repair of the tunnel, the City has no records indicating responsibility of the tunnel. The City will continue to coordinate with SHGCC on their necessary tunnel repairs in order to enable the City’s resurfacing of Sand Hill Road.
