2010 Altadena Town Council Elections: Alice Wessen For Town Council, Census Tract 4603.01

Alice Wessen For Town Council

President, Chaney Millard Fire Safe Council; founder, Chaney Trail listserve; produced Fire Wise and Emergency Preparedness Website, Proud public school parent.

 

My census tract was the only one where neighbors were evacuated during the Station Fire.  So my priorities remain to work in the area of fire and emergency preparedness, and to communicate and listen to the needs of our community.

As president of the Chaney Millard Fire Safe Council (FSC) a 501 c3, I raised over $300K for critical brush clearance and our FSC set up an emergency preparedness website: http://chaneymillard.org/emergPrepare.html

To communicate with neighbors I founded the Chaney Trail listserve.  Altadena has an amazing group of listserves that shared info on the Station Fire when main news did not.  

 

I have also worked with the Millard Creek conservation group to help clear the Millard Creek stream bed of non native vegetation.

I am uncontested in my census tract but it is no less an honor to receive your vote, Altadena.

With sincere thanks, Alice Wessen
