PREPARING FOR A PUBLIC SAFETY POWER SHUTOFF

Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) is a statewide effort to prevent wildfires by proactively turning off power to communities when severe winds and dry weather conditions are forecast. While turning off the power helps prevent wildfires, we also know it will disrupt lives and cause hardship for our customers. That’s why PG&E does not make this decision lightly and will only call a PSPS to help keep customers and communities safe.

HERE ARE 5 WAYS TO PREPARE FOR A PSPS:

COUNTY REPORTS 0 COVID CASES, RECORD LOW IN HOMELESSNESS

“THIS DOESN’T HAVE TO BE FAKE NEWS…TOGETHER, WE CAN MAKE IT SACRAMENTO COUNTY’S FUTURE!”

A Humane Approach To Homelessness That Doesn’t Compromise Public Safety Increase state and local resources for mental illness, addiction, and physical disability treatment; a path to transitional and permanent housing; responsible affordable housing programs. Confronting Covid-19 Based On Science Make decisions based on the best information available from experts; communicate with the public and be willing to listen; work with community groups and non-profits to understand individual needs and get services where they are needed. Independent Leadership That Puts Partisan Politics Aside Focus on practical solutions to the issues that most impact our quality of life; put people first and focus on making Sacramento County a better place for future generations to live and work.
