Alert

REMINDER: Evacuation Warning is still in effect for Monrovia residents.

As a reminder, an Evacuation Warning remains in effect for those who reside on the Evacuation Map. The Bobcat Fire continues to spread down the hillside just above Monrovia.

If an Evacuation Order is issued, the City will coordinate the evacuation in two phases. The First Phase will be all residents residing north of Hillcrest Boulevard and north of Greystone Avenue. The Second Phase will be all residents residing between Hillcrest Boulevard and Greystone Avenue, south to Foothill Boulevard.There is NO Evacuation Warning and NO Evacuation Order for residents residing south of Foothill Boulevard.

Residents should have evacuation plans in place, organize their emergency evacuation supplies and have essential evacuation personal belongings easily accessible. Vehicles should be fully fueled, facing out in their driveways and ready to leave. Please make those arrangements now.

In the event that an Evacuation Order is issued, residents should quickly gather their families and pets and leave the area to designated evacuation sites, or to family and friends’ homes outside the fire area. Delaying these preparedness actions will prevent fire crews from suppression activities and compromise the safety of the public and first responders. Monrovia Police Officers will be patrolling evacuated neighborhoods to ensure public safety. There will be resident-only checkpoints in the area, but the City is asking everyone to avoid the evacuated areas.

A temporary evacuation point has been established at the Santa Anita Race Track. To find out more information regarding the evacuation center, please call 1-800-RED-CROSS (733-2767).

At this time, all non-residents are asked to leave the area above Foothill Boulevard in Monrovia to allow for public safety personnel to continue monitoring the area.
