•  Housing: 20 individuals have lost their homes; a total of 17 homes have been destroyed. 91 of our Villagers were evacuated from their homes; complete information about how many have returned to where they were living before the fire, and how many have secured alternative living accomodations is not yet available.

• Diaster Recovery Centers:  After January 31, 2025, the Pasadena Community College will close. In-person assistance will continue to be offered at the Altadena site, at 540 W. Woodbury Road, Altadena CA 91001.

• The Right of Entry form is part of Phase 2 of the debris removal program where residents can Opt-In for free nonhazardous debris removal by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers or residents can Opt-Out. Currently underway is Phase 1 of the debris removal program, which includes the removal of hazardous debris.

To participate in the free service, residents must complete a Right of Entry form by March 31, 2025. The US Army Corps of Engineers and their contractors cannot access a property to conduct the debris removal unless this form is completed.  Right of Entry information and forms
