Despite the fires that decimated parts of Los Angeles last year, the LAFD is still short manpower, equipment and money! In 2024, the LAFD’s budget was cut by $17 million! LAFD has a number of units still out of commission as there are no mechanics or parts available! Add to the fact the staffing levels for the LAFD is the same as it was in 1960! With five times the numbers of calls for service. Meanwhile the LAFD DEI budget was $2.62 million for FY 2024-2025! While firefighters are responding in rigs seen in the television show “Emergency” LA spent between $200 and $250K on Anti-Ice billboards! Homeowners who lost homes in the fires should sue Mayor Bass for her incompetence!
