At the Paramount City Council meeting on October 13, the Public Safety team shared a report on the ways Paramount is actively preparing for an El Niรฑo winter this year. While a โSuper El Niรฑoโ isnโt a massive storm, it is a climate pattern in the Pacific Ocean that can increase the chance of heavier rains here in Paramount.
Here are some things staff are doing to prepare:
โ๏ธIncreased sandbag availability
โ๏ธCatch basin clearing for storm drains
โ๏ธTree trimming
โ๏ธEmergency preparedness team is on stand-by
How can residents prepare? Visit our El Niรฑo resource page to find more information about sandbags, street sweeping impacts, preparedness tips and more: www.paramountcity.gov/super-el-nino/
