An evacuation order has been issued in our jurisdiction due to the Bobcat Fire. Anyone who is in the following areas is ordered to evacuate:

• South and West of Upper Big Tujunga

Instructions:

Residents in these areas should quickly gather their families and pets and head to your preplanned location outside of the fire evacuation zones. Residents must take these necessary steps to ensure your family’s safety. Delaying evacuation will prevent fire crews from suppression activities and compromise the safety of the public and first responders.
Right now, you should:
Review your Evacuation Plan Checklist.
1. Ensure your Emergency Supply Kit is in your vehicle.
2. Cover-up to protect against heat and flying embers. Wear long pants, long sleeve shirt, heavy shoes/boots, cap, dry bandanna for face cover, goggles or glasses. 100% cotton is preferable.
3. Locate your pets and take them with you.
4. This season is a bit different due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Remember to be Fire Safe and COVID Aware. Ensure that you continue to take the necessary safety precautions in regard to COVID-19 when evacuating.
