If a power line falls on your vehicle or in the road, call 9-1-1 and stay inside until trained personnel can remove it. NEVER touch a downed power line or attempt to move it yourself. #CALFIRE #emergencypreparedness #HurricaneHilary

Traffic signal not working?? It automatically turns into a four way stop. Be alert!! Not everyone notices when the lights are dark and may fail to stop or yield to traffic in the intersection. STAY SAFE, STAY ALERT.

Today is the #SummerSolstice, marking the first day of #summer! Warmer temperatures mean drier vegetation and that can create the perfect conditions for a wildfire. Protect your home and family by taking the steps to be wildfire ready! Learn more at readyforwildfire.org

Out with the old & in with the new! Our out-of-date metal framed radio tower is being replaced with a sleek, new monopole tower. Upon completion, the old tower will be torn down. This work is being done under contract with @theLARICS & @FirstNetGov at no cost to the city!

Press event from members of Congress in support of HR 451 Don't Break Up the T-Band Spectrum.
In DC with Chief Glatt @LASDHQ and Chief Ewald @lacofd in support of HR 451 "Don't Break Up the T-Band Act of 2019." Public Safety cannot afford to move to other spectrum as none exists. @TheIACP @NationalSheriff @MCSheriffs @TheLARICS @joinipsa

This is exactly why @TheLARICS built 76 public safety LTE sites with power backup generators and are building 26 more. These 102 sites will become part of the @ATT @FirstNet system with network and power redundancy so they will always be there when needed. latimes.com/california/story…
