The city of Palmdale's public safety and community relations department will host an Emergency Preparedness Workshop at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 23, in the City Council Chambers, 38300 Sierra Highway, Suite B.

This workshop will offer how-to information, educational presentations, supplies and suggestions on how to be properly prepared.

"Being properly prepared for an emergency is important and a must for all residents," said Anne Ambrose, director of public safety and community relations. "Most people don't realize that if they're properly prepared for an earthquake, they are prepared for most natural disasters. And being prepared is very important for Palmdale residents since the city is so close to the San Andreas Fault line."

In addition to the Palmdale's public safety staff, guest speakers from the Los Angeles County Fire Department and Red Cross will also be present.

For more information, contact Ruth Oschmann at 661-267-5170.
