DEADLINE: Fire Debris Removal for Opt-Out Properties
[Update as of June 1, 2025]: There are approximately 7 property owners who have been non-responsive regarding fire debris removal. In addition, approximately 7 property owners who previously opted out of the government-sponsored debris removal program have not yet submitted the required permit applications for private cleanup. Property owners must follow procedures set by EPIC-LA.
Of the 14 properties referenced above, approximately 10 are located on beachfront lots.
The City has been proactively contacting these property owners to provide notice of the cleanup requirements and upcoming deadlines. If debris removal is not fully completed by June 30, 2025, the City will evaluate available options, including potential enforcement actions or court proceedings. However, the City’s primary goal is for all property owners to complete debris removal voluntarily and in compliance with the deadline.
While some properties remain uncleared, the City recognizes and appreciates the significant progress already made. Approximately 420 properties have successfully completed debris removal or are actively in the process—demonstrating strong community commitment to recovery and resilience.\
