Supervisor Kathryn Barger issued the following statement celebrating FEMA’s announcement this morning that they would extend the deadline for residents to submit their Right of Entry Forms to opt into the federal debris removal program, and that they’ve expanded the opportunity for debris removal to include condos and multi-family units.
“Altadena residents have been through unimaginable loss in the wake of the Eaton Fire and have been confronted with compounding responsibilities and logistical challenges to begin rebuilding,” Barger said. “I am thankful to FEMA for extending the deadline for residents to submit their ROE forms so they have more breathing room to fully understand their options and make an informed decision about debris removal. I am also glad FEMA has extended the opportunity to multi-family units to access this important resource. We are on the road to recovery, and these updates will ensure more of our residents get the help they need and deserve.”
