San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo said he's holding PG&E accountable for this week's power outages, caused by blown transformers.
San Jose residents say they are fed up with the recurring power outages that occurred during this week's heat wave. We spoke with Mayor Sam Liccardo who said the outages are unacceptable and plans to take action to hold PG&E accountable.One couple in San Jose's Evergreen neighborhood said the power went out twice Thursday afternoon.
"The power was not on when we left the house today," Holly Chambers said there have been four outages at her Morgan Hill home in four days lasting 4 to 6 hours each time."You tell us it's not rolling power outages, but four days in a row of having our power go out when our lines are underground -should be reliable. But we're still suffering," said Chambers.
"If we don't get there, we're going to go to the PUC and the courts to force PG&E to do what they should have done," said Liccardo.
