Property Owners Who Fail to Submit ROE Forms Could Be On the Hook For Debris Removal Costs
By ANDRÈ COLEMAN, Managing Editor
According to the County’s recovery website, local property owners that do not turn in the required Right of Entry forms could be left with a bill if the Army Corps of Engineers is forced to remove debris from their land.
“If your property was affected, you must choose a debris removal option by April 15, 2025,” according to a statement at https://recovery.lacounty.
“If you do not submit an Opt-In or Opt-Out form by April 15, 2025, the government will initiate a process to remove fire debris from your property to protect public health and safety.
“In such event, you will be responsible for the full cost of the government’s fire debris removal activities at your property, and a lien may be placed on your property to recover those costs.”
As of Sunday morning, 95 property owners had not filled out the necessary forms. Property owners are required to fill out the forms even if they wish to opt out of the Army Corps of Engineers removal program.
