LAFD Hollywood Hills Evacuation Exercise and Resource Fair
2019-11-16 09:00 - 13:00
The exercise is based on a fire in the Los Feliz area. Notify LA will be sending test drill notices to all Hollywood Hills residents (about 10am) to prepare their homes for a fire event, take their go bag and evacuate the hills to attend a resource fair at:
Hollywood Presbyterian Church, 1760 N. Gower Street – from 11am to 1pm. There is a parking lot next to the church.
This is a great opportunity to practice what you would do if you were required to evacuate in a real fire. Any questions or missing details can be answered at the resource fair. After this drill, you should be ready.
Please see the flyer. http://www.hhwnc.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Hollywood-Hills-Exercise-Resource-Fair.pdf

Earthquake Safety - Retrofitting Grants - Until May 31st
2023-05-24 - 2023-05-31
www.EarthquakeSoftStory.com
From: Senator Anthony J. Portantino
Senator, 25th District
Dear Friends and Neighbors,
In my role with the Seismic Safety Commission, it’s part of our mandate to provide the public with cost-effective recommendations to reduce earthquake losses and speed recovery. That’s why I’m getting the word out about the California Residential Mitigation Program’s new Earthquake Soft Story Program.
Between now and May 31, 2023, qualified homeowners in Pasadena and Los Angeles can apply for grants up to $13,000 to strengthen their soft-story homes against earthquake damage.
Soft-story homes that may qualify for this pilot program have one floor of living space built above a garage. These structures are vulnerable to damage because they may not be able to withstand the lateral movement from earthquake shaking. Houses with this condition may be prone to partial or full collapse during an earthquake.
Making a soft-story home more resistant to earthquake damage can be as straightforward as having a licensed contractor install new plywood sheathing or steel reinforcements on each side of the garage door and bracing the perimeter walls of the garage.
Eligible homeowners can apply for retrofit funding at www.EarthquakeSoftStory.com. Here you can also find detailed program information and select from a list of FEMA-trained, California licensed general contractors. Participating homeowners will be selected through a random drawing and notified via email if they have been selected or if they have been placed on the waitlist, after registration closes.
In California, earthquakes are not a matter of if, but when. The more you can be prepared in advance, the better your outcome will be. I strongly encourage all eligible homeowners to apply for this grant funding.
