Lmao so much nonsense over $17 mil. Isn’t the LAFDs budget close to $1,000,000,000? California alone has more invested in forest fire firefighting than most countries. Here is some numbers provided by the state, https://www.gov.ca.gov/2025/01/08/california-forest-management-hotter-drier-climate/

Based on what I’m reading another $1.5 billion has been added to the firefighting budget.

A mayors office is not suited to perform firefighting. They play a very small role. Nonsense.
