Following the now-viral moment where LA Marxist Mayor Karen Bass was told directly by President Donald Trump that she should let the people clean up their own properties, residents continue to be denied access to their own property.
Trump excoriated her to use her emergency powers to cut the red tape that might delay them from seeing their homes for months, if not years, yet residents are reporting she continues to deny them access to their own property, citing concerns for their “safety.”
The January 15 order from LA County Health Officer Dr. Munta Davis is still in effect. It states, “No removal of fire debris resulting from the Critical Fire Area in Los Angeles County shall occur from properties without a hazardous materials inspection conducted either by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or California Department of Toxic Substances Control …”

Excerpt:
Los Angeles is preventing residents from going to their properties, much less starting the process of cleaning them up.
L.A. County Health Officer Dr. Muntu Davis issued the no debris removal order.
His calling card includes promoting a “health equity framework within government agencies,” and the top value listed on his county health office website is “equity.”
The Jan. 15 order from Davis read in part, “No removal of fire debris resulting from the Critical Fire Area in Los Angeles County shall occur from properties without a hazardous materials inspection conducted either by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or California Department of Toxic Substances Control …” The order listed a few other government agencies that could also do the inspection.
The Health Officer issued an order prohibiting cleanup or removal of fire debris at fire damaged and burned properties located in Critical Fire Areas until a hazardous materials inspection is completed by an approved government agency.
