These past few days, we’ve seen unprecedented flooding, damage to homes, and hundreds requiring emergency rescue. It’s truly devastating.
Which is why I wanted to reach out to ensure you and your loved ones are staying safe during the San Diego storm and provide information on available resources,
Hi Community,
These past few days, we’ve seen unprecedented flooding, damage to homes, and hundreds requiring emergency rescue. It’s truly devastating.
As your Supervisor, I want to assure you I have my ear to the ground, and am working around the clock with federal, state, county and city leaders to assess the situation and ensure that we are prepared for any and every situation.
Governor Newsom has already issued a state of emergency for San Diego, and the County of San Diego ratified our declaration for a state of emergency yesterday. As we take every precaution possible to ensure the safety of our Community, let us not forget that this is a glaring reminder of the fact that climate change is banging down our door.
From the raging fire season to the devastating floods we are witnessing in real time, the threat climate change poses to our safety and security can not be ignored. We must also acknowledge the lack of investment into our infrastructure that contributed to the devastation of the storm.
Right now, my entire team is doing everything we can to ensure our community members can recover from this storm with dignity. We are working with climate scientists, elected officials, engineers, and the people of our Community on rapid response and long term solutions.
Please stay safe, and do not hesitate to contact my office if you need assistance.
