Notes from the panel discussion by officials from the cities of Malibu & Bell Canyon. Please verify the accuracy if sharing.

  • They are considering using sirens in the neighborhood in the future for notification.
  • 250k evacuated in less than 24hrs, PCH became jammed, but it was a safe place to be.
  • Lost 1,600 homes (needs to be verified).
  • Educate everyone on what happens during disaster events.
  • Be an asset (by being educated, ready and evacuating when asked), not a liability (requiring a fireman to leave a fire to rescue people that stayed behind).
  • Always have an AM radio nearby andĀ be signed up with the alert apps.Ā  Ā  Ā https://emergency.lacity.org/notifylaĀ  Ā  Ā https://www.lacity.org/blog/download-shakealertla-earthquake-early-warning-app-now
  • Be careful of power lines on roads.
  • All plans will need to be fluid and change once disasters begin, monitor the radio for emergency notifications.
