Concrete repair work in the Lake Hill Road neighborhood is scheduled to conclude Tuesday, September 15th, wrapping a repair sequence that began with asphalt work in August. Separately, SDG&E has planned electrical work tonight in Santee and Carlton Hills from approximately 10 p.m. until 1 a.m. Tuesday; residents can check their individual SDG&E accounts or the utility's app to confirm whether their address falls within the affected circuit.

El Cajon has called a special City Council meeting for Tuesday at 3 p.m. in the council chambers at 200 Civic Center Way. No agenda detail was available as of Monday morning's reporting. Special sessions typically involve time-sensitive personnel matters, contract decisions, or items requiring action between regular meeting cycles.

Also launching this week is the Sheriff's Department's Rise Above program — a free, eight-week course designed for children ages nine to twelve that requires a parent or guardian to attend alongside the child and includes dinner at each session. The program begins Wednesday at Joan MacQueen Middle School in Alpine and Thursday at the Lemon Grove Community Center, both running from 6 to 7:30 p.m. The curriculum covers decision-making, peer pressure, and community values. The combination of required parental attendance and a provided meal is deliberate program design, intended to remove two common barriers to after-school engagement: logistics and the dinner hour.
