As a regional emergency preparedness and response facility, the Parris Center is designed to serve as a hub for emergency sheltering, disaster response coordination, and essential community services during natural disasters, public safety incidents, and other emergency events. Reliable access to utilities such as electricity and water are a fundamental component of emergency preparedness and continuity of operations. To provide needed water resources and infrastructure, the City’s acquisition of the subject parcel from Los Angeles County is necessary.
