These efforts have been supported by a variety of funding sources, including grant funding. Over the past decade, the City has secured nearly $100 million in grant funds for selected projects.

🚨 Help Us Prevent Fire Hydrant Theft! 🚒

Fire hydrants are essential to protecting our community and helping firefighters respond to emergencies. Theft and vandalism can put lives at risk and lead to costly repairs.

If you see a fire hydrant being removed, tampered with, or notice suspicious activity, please contact the South Gate Police Department’s non-emergency line at (323) 563-5436.

⚠️ Do not approach or confront individuals. If possible, provide the location, a description, and vehicle information.

Please note: Authorized City of South Gate Water Division crews may perform hydrant maintenance and repairs. Look for City-marked white trucks, Water Division markings, uniforms, and City identification.

Together, we can protect our community and keep South Gate safe!
