FEMA HAS OFFICERS IN PAUMA

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has opened services at the relief center operating at Pauma Community Center on Hwy 76. I met Bill Lindsey, who is with the FEMA effort locally, aided by three staffers. Note: FEMA does not have people at the Red Cross center at Bell Gardens. Another nearby FEMA location is in Fallbrook.

Sarah Anne Taylor is the team leader at the Pauma center.

Residents who have been impacted by the wildfires are invited to drop by the FEMA center, or to apply using their 800 number: 1-800-621-3362.
