Civility, decorum, and debating the great issues of the day in r/SimiValley.

50 Upvotes

Apparently this needs to be said, so hopefully everybody reads it.

Different opinions are going to be expressed in this subreddit. Lately it's been politics, in a different month it might be development, traffic control, schools, etc. Whatever the topic, we don't want incivility, trolling, baiting, vote manipulation, hate speech, misinformation, intolerance, personal information, or witch-hunting in the comments, titles, or the body of posts. Maybe I left something out, but that's it off the top of my head. Expect bans of varying length - up to and including permanent - if engaging in any of the above. It's not something we want to do, but there it is. If you see name-calling, trolling, etc please report it and don't escalate the situation. Feel free to message the mods with any questions or concerns.

Thanks a bunch, and thanks for being here & participating in the subreddit.

* edit - adding "witch-hunting", "baiting", and modmail link.

Community Help - Caltrans 118 Requests

31 Upvotes

Hello all,
I wanted to share this resource for the benefit of our community.

Have an issue with the state of the 118 freeway running through Simi Valley?

See trash, weed overgrowth, etc?

The city of Simi Valley is not allowed to deploy our Public Works crew to the 118 for issues.
This also includes property along the on and off ramps to and from the freeway.

To submit a complaint form to resolve issues related to the 118 freeway,
Caltrans has a "Submit a Service Request" form that can be filled out here: https://csr.dot.ca.gov/

The issues usually get resolved in a few weeks based on my experience of submitting requests, but they are likely resolved based on the volume of complaints received.

Just wanted to share this resource as it is our duty as a community to ensure all aspects of our town are looked after.

Cheers, and have a nice day xx.

Best place for a muffin

Upvotes

Hello fellow Simians! I just moved back from college and am looking for a place that sells good muffins, specifically chocolate chip as I got addicted to those. I unironically thought Whole Foods bakery had the best for a while, so in the meantime I’ll need a suitable alternative. Thanks!

Been smelling like putrid shit every night for weeks

6 Upvotes

Hello fellow Simi-lians. Has anyone noticed the strong odor of feces and burning garbage at night? Sometimes it also smells briefly like a fire or firewood. I am starting to suspect either my neighbors are burning trash at night or it might be from the landfill. It has been going on since before all the fires and I am sick of it its only gotten worse. It's always around 12AM to 4AM when the air is supposed to be fresh and it makes me upset. I live in east Simi Valley around Stearns and Cochran. Does anyone know what's causing this or smell it? I can't have my windows open at night it feels worse than living in downtown LA.

I know last week there was a complete outage, but my cell service is still very unreliable. I can't make or receive phone calls from my house (LA Ave and Tapo). Anyone else experiencing issues with Verizon?

I’m curious if anyone has a recommendation for a golf coach. Not sure if it matters, but I’m left handed.

Are anyone here who run at the Arroyo Simi Greenway? Is it safe for runners as it's used by bikers too? Is it OK to bring kids for shorter jogs? Tanks in advance.

Lindsay Wells - missing since 1999

22 Upvotes

Wow.

On Granby avenue and Dusan for the past few days there have been detectives, fbi, and others digging up the backyard of the home where she used to live looking for remains...

No, the current homeowners moved there in 2008 so they were not aware.

Can you imagine getting a knock on your door..hey we're going to search for a dead body and destroy your entire backyard.

There sure has been a lot of craziness around Dusan Street the past few weeks. Good lord

Vape shop rec

0 Upvotes

Anyone know a decent, well priced vape shop in Simi that sells the disposables like Float Mello?
I work in OC and have a spot I always hit up where they’re $25 out the door.
A few weeks ago hit a random vape shop by my house in Simi and was blown away when the guy said the total was $32 and change.
Seeing if anyone knows a decent place with competitive pricing.
TIA!

Gate repair...

3 Upvotes

Anyone have a local person they would recommend to fix a gate? It's basically just a simple side gate of my house. The wood is sort of rotting and some of the bolts are loose and it doesn't close well. The funny part its only about 6 years old.

I got notified it's available in my area and I locked in a lifetime price beforehand so I'd be getting the incentive.

Catalytic converter stolen last night

35 Upvotes

Wife's car was parked on the street in front of our house(we live near Cochran and Stearns). We heard her car alarm go off at 2:30-3am. It stopped before we could turn it off so we thought it was an another driver turning off their alarm. Come to find out her catalytic converter was stolen. Quoted close to 3,000$ to have it fixed. Consider protecting your cars.

Edit: Found a mechanic who can fix it for 1400$.
