Pasadena Fire Department to inspect more than 4,600 properties in very-high hazard zone starting April

The Pasadena Fire Department will conduct hazardous brush inspections of more than 4,600 properties located within the California State Fire Marshal’s designated very high hazard severity zone, the Rose City Report said.

Inspections are scheduled from April 1 through June 30; the broadcast framed the effort as heightened prevention in the wake of the Eaton fire. Residents were directed to the city’s fire web page to check whether their property lies inside the designated zone.

The segment did not specify enforcement penalties, inspection protocols, or whether inspections will result in fines; it also did not provide a detailed property list. The radio report advised residents to visit cityofpasadena.net/fire for maps and preparation guidance.
