January 2020 Dinner Meeting: THE RACE FOR CITY EARTHQUAKE PREPAREDNESS

Approximately every 20 years, Southern California is hit by a moderate to large earthquake that causes loss of life and billions of dollars in damage. After a large earthquake, cities are faced with the challenge of rebuilding, restoring economical losses, and recovering from psychological impacts among the affected population. Old existing buildings and systems pose the largest threat to life and the economy. Cities in Southern California are working nonstop in this race for earthquake resilience before the next big one occurs. Speakers from Southern California cities will present on various topics of earthquake preparedness, including local jurisdictions and policies.
