Every time we rebuild, we’re not just replacing homes — we’re investing in resilience. Whether it’s restoring utilities, clearing debris, or constructing fire-resistant housing, each step brings the California community closer to safety and stability.
Overview
When wildfire sweeps through neighborhoods, it leaves behind toxic ash, debris, and unsafe structures that must be removed before rebuilding can begin. In Los Angeles County, the Right-of-Entry (ROE) Program is the official process that allows property owners to authorize cleanup crews to enter their land and perform this vital work.
The ROE Info Page walks residents step-by-step through eligibility, deadlines, and what to expect once forms are submitted. It also explains how the program is funded, helping homeowners understand that in many cases, cleanup costs are covered through federal and state disaster relief.
Why It Matters
Critical First Step – Without an ROE, contractors cannot legally enter a property, stalling recovery.
Financial Relief – County and state programs reduce or eliminate the burden of out-of-pocket cleanup costs.
Peace of Mind – Residents gain confidence that removal will be done safely and professionally.
