Next PPCC Board Meeting: May 8, 2025, 6pm via Zoom (agenda pending). See direct Zoom meeting link HERE.
Message from the President:
At our April 24th Board meeting, we heard from and thanked a young LAFD firefighter, Ben Sweet, who helped save Station 69 and an adjacent home and ADU during the fire! We were also pleased to hear from Rob Obedoza, Outreach Analyst with the Dept. of Insurance, who presented information and answered numerous questions related to fire recovery / insurance matters. Please see the slides of his presentation HERE. In addition, LADWP representatives were also on hand to provide information about the “Scattergood” generating station modernization plan.
Our next meeting on May 8, 2025, will feature presentations by a Pali High Ambassador, Katelyn Chang, with a teen’s perspective on the fire, and by Evan Hall (with “Preserving Palisades’ Architectural Heritage”), who will explain a project to preserve chimneys from historically significant Palisades homes. We’ll also take up a motion by the Executive and Rebuild Committees for board approval of a professional survey of community opinion (deferred from April 24th due to time constraints).
