La Crescenta residents cite fire evacuation concerns in battle against affordable housing project

Concerned residents and La Crescenta city leaders are urging Los Angeles County to take another look at a proposed five-story affordable housing site. They say Briggs Avenue and Foothill Boulevard offer only one way out, and with the proposed development, there would be a dangerous evacuation bottleneck and no safe way to escape danger.

The proposed five-story apartment complex would replace an 80-year-old motel at the corner of Briggs Avenue and Foothill Boulevard. The development would include 66 units and potentially house hundreds of residents. Tatyana Esmaelian, a La Crescenta resident, said the location could create serious problems during a wildfire evacuation. “I see this as a disaster happening, where it’s a repeat of Palisades Fire meets Eaton Fire, where people will get gridlocked to come out,” Esmaelian said. Residents say the intersection is already a potential evacuation choke point. Above the proposed development are already hundreds of homes, with Briggs Avenue serving as a primary evacuation route. Chris Kilpatrick of the Crescenta Valley Town Council called the proposed location particularly problematic. “This is probably the worst place in the

As California’s rainy season gets underway, cleared gutters do not mean the roof valleys above them are clear.

Cleared gutters do not mean the roof valleys above them are clear. Debris tends to collect in valleys and restrict drainage; roof maintenance can reveal potential sources of leaks before the roof leaks. In California, check what you can see safely from the ground now, and leave rooftop clearing and repairs to a roofer. Los Angeles County says its storm season begins in mid-October and typically lasts through early spring.
