The plan aims to reduce fuels, improve preparedness, and better protect at-risk neighborhoods. 
• Los Angeles Housing Market Stumbles as Sales Volume See Notable Dip in November (noradarealestate.com) — Home prices and sales trends in Los Angeles County, including the San Gabriel Valley, show a cooler, more cautious housing market heading into winter. Sales have dropped sharply even as prices hold relatively steady, and homes are taking longer to sell. For San Gabriel-area buyers and sellers, this means more negotiating power for buyers and a need for realistic pricing from sellers.
