Firefighters have begun their annual brush inspections, and these inspections will continue over the next couple of months. At this time of year, we also encourage residents to review their Ready Set Go Wildfire Action Plan, which provides several tips on maintaining proper brush clearance, hardening your home, and preparing to evacuate if necessary. This year, The Los Angeles County Fire Department is also introducing the new Crisis Communications Card, which contains information about valuable resources where you can obtain information during wildfire or other emergencies. Both the Ready Set Go guides and the Crisis Communications Cards are available at your local fire stations, or  fire.lacounty.gov/rsg.
