In recognition of National Preparedness Month, the City of Irvine has launched a Community Disaster Resiliency Survey to gain a better understanding of residents’ preparedness ahead of a disaster. 

The survey offers insight into residents’ awareness of emergency alert methods and evacuation zones, as well as their overall readiness for emergencies such as earthquakes, wildfires, power outages, and other disasters. 

Results from the survey will be used to improve disaster planning and tailor outreach, education, and training to meet community needs. 

The City of Irvine, in partnership with the South Coast Chinese Cultural Center, will host the fifth annual Mid-Autumn Festival at Great Park Friday, September 26, from 5 to 9:30 p.m. This free, family-friendly event invites the community to enjoy an evening filled with rich cultural traditions, festive performances, and interactive activities.

The City of Irvine has developed a Final Draft Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (CAAP) to address the challenges posed by climate change and create a sustainable and resilient future for all community members.
