Rebuild:LA Episode 070: The New LAFD Ambassador to the Palisades Is Ready and Waiting to Help You Rebuild

Send us Fan Mail15 months after the Palisades Fire, the Los Angeles City Fire Department is still under a microscope regarding their response times, emergency notifications to residents, and pre-deployment decisions. But that's not stopping them from taking an active role in helping residents get permits and permissions to rebuild. The fire department is integral in the process, and with more than 6,000 structures lost to the fire, it was clear to the LAFD and city government as a whole that building red tape could be a nightmare if not streamlined. That's where LAFD Captain Dwayne Laurent comes in. Our guest this week is the new LAFD Ambassador to the Palisades, recently named by the new Fire Chief, Jaime Moore. Host Cameron Barrett asks him all about his new assignment and how the rebuilding process is shaping up in the Palisades.LA City's Rebuild and ReturnPalisades Inspections and Permitting Support CenterLA Recovery ResourcesMySafe:LA Can Help With Wildfire Risk AssessmentsSupport the show
