Callers to the Red Phone lately have alley fever. After the City of Hollister Public Works Department recently addressed shoddy street conditions on two other alleys – Browns and Wentz alleys – another caller this week offered a brief description of her displeasure with three local roadways: Smith Alley, Washington Street, and Monterey Street near St Luke’s Episcopal Church.
City public works crews recently filled a slew of potholes along Browns Alley near downtown Hollister after a resident had expressed concern to the Red Phone.
