Dear Friend:

I hope you and your family are staying safe as the strong winds and dangerous conditions continue. Although there are currently no evacuation orders for neighborhoods in Council District 3, please remain alert, limit unnecessary travel, and be ready to take action if the situation changes.
Please follow all evacuation warnings and avoid driving whenever possible to keep the roads clear for emergency vehicles and evacuees. If you are not in an evacuation zone but are close to one, make sure you have a go-bag ready and a plan in place (bag should include water, food, copies of important documents, pet food, extra medication- whatever you need to be safe.) Learn more here. Stay alert and sign up for NotifyLA for real-time updates. 

Currently, El Camino Real Charter High School is serving as an evacuation center for residents and Pierce College is accepting large animals displaced from fires. More locations for large and small animal evacuation sites can be found here.

As you may know, my volunteer Community Action Team on Emergency Preparedness (BobCAT) and I, have forward deployed emergency supplies in pods throughout the West Valley to be used during emergencies. If you are in need of supplies, please reach out to us at c03.foryou@lacity.org. 

Our first responders are working tirelessly to address the ongoing fires and ensure everyone’s safety. Let’s help them by keeping 9-1-1 open for life-threatening emergencies only. For non-emergencies or other city services, please use the provided contact numbers to reach the appropriate entity to address your needs.
  • For life-threatening emergencies call 9-1-1 and report downed trees and other non-life-threatening hazards to 3-1-1 or at MyLA311.
My office and I will continue to keep you informed of any updates and community safety measures as new information becomes available.

Thank you and please stay safe,

Councilmember Bob Blumenfield
