A reminder of two meetings coming up about public safety:
- The Los Angeles County Office of Emergency Management will present an updated "all hazards mitigation plan," AKA disaster preparedness plan. This includes natural and human-caused hazards and will address
earthquakes, flooding, tsunamis, dam inundation, wildfires, terrorism, loss of utilities, drought, biological and health emergencies, wastewater and water emergencies, economic disruption, data and telecommunications emergencies, and civil unrest. The county is asking for the input of residents in identifying any additional hazards and mitigation strategies. The meeting will be at the Altadena Community Center, 730 E. Altadena Dr., from 6-7:30 PM. - The Altadena Coalition of Neighborhood Associations (ACONA) will meet at the Altadena Library, 600 E. Mariposa St., from 7-8:30 PM Tues. (tomorrow). Speakers and topics include Tanganica Turner, field representative for Assemblyman Anthony Portantino, on group homes; Sheriff Lt. Roosevelt Johnson, who will discuss issues with the dispatchers who answer the phones at the sheriff's office; and Lance Hunter, animal care and control manager of the Baldwin Park Animal Shelter.
