Families in limbo as power delays stall new homes
During a recent government meeting, community members expressed their frustrations regarding delays in moving into new homes due to power connection issues with Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E).

Anna Ledezma, a first-time homebuyer, shared her family's anxiety over the uncertainty of their move-in date, emphasizing the need for stability for her three children. She highlighted the challenges of finding rental properties in the small community of Corcoran, which has left her family in a precarious situation as they await their new home.

Tiffany Merberger, a local teacher, echoed these sentiments, detailing her family's struggles while living in a cramped apartment. She described the new home as a crucial opportunity for a better quality of life, but lamented the repeated delays in connecting power to the property. Merberger called for PG&E to provide a clear timeline for when the power would be activated, expressing that the ongoing uncertainty is taking a toll on her family's morale.

The meeting included a commitment to further discussions with PG&E regarding these power issues, as community members seek immediate action to resolve the delays affecting their ability to move into their new homes.
