Coyote safety starts in our own backyards, ! 🏡

Coyotes are naturally wary of people, but easy food and hiding spots can bring them closer to our homes. Taking a few simple steps can prevent unwanted encounters and keep everyone safe:

Never leave pet food outside and keep trash cans tightly sealed 🗑️
Keep cats indoors and supervise dogs closely when outdoors 🐾
If a coyote approaches, stand tall, wave your arms and shout 🗣️

To report aggressive wildlife call SEAACA at (562) 803-3301 or call 911 for emergencies.

Red means stop for e-bikes, too! 🛑

This week's E-Bike Safety Campaign covers the rules of the road. If you are riding an e-bike, you must follow the same traffic laws as a car:
Always ride with the flow of traffic, not against it 🛣️
You must stop at all stop signs and red lights🚦
E-bikes are allowed in designated bike lanes and paths where standard bicycles are permitted 🚲

Violating traffic laws on an e-bike can still result in a ticket, so be sure to ride safe, ! 🚓

Stay coyote aware, Paramount! 🐺

Help keep our community safe by following these essential tips:
Eliminate food and water sources by securing trash lids and picking up fallen fruit 🍎
Keep landscaping trimmed to eliminate potential hiding places in your yard 🌿
Do not allow pets to roam without a leash, especially at night 🐕

UPDATE 5-24-26 ⚠️ The City of Paramount is actively monitoring the impacts of an oil pipeline leak that occurred upstream in East Los Angeles, Friday, May 22.

AS OF 5-24-26:
*The leak has been successfully controlled and shut off by emergency crews.
*County health and environmental teams are continuing to repair the pipe.
*While crude oil entered the LA River, no v***r has risen to the surface in Paramount.
*Because our City sits along the LA River (right by Dills Park), residents may experience strong, oil-type odors during repairs.
*Crews hope to complete repairs by Tuesday, May 26

What you can do to stay safe:
🛑 If you smell strong odors outside, close your windows and doors. Turn off HVAC systems or air conditioners that pull in outside air until the odor passes.
🛑 Stay completely away from the riverbed and contaminated debris. Keep children and pets far away from the affected areas.
🛑 Look out for vulnerable individuals who are more sensitive to air pollution, including older adults, children and those with asthma or breathing conditions.

Resources and Reporting:
✔️ Report severe odors directly to the South Coast AQMD at 1-800-288-7664
✔️ Sign up for real-time local emergency alerts at www.paramountcity.gov/nixle

We are in direct contact with LA County and State emergency managers and will continue to share verified updates as they become available.
