LA water solutions underway faced delays before fire outbreak

As the wildfires and uproar from the response to the blazes continue in Los Angeles, the city has had past plans to fix the water flow — which went dry during recent firefights — but many of the proposals have failed to be realized.

The Los Angeles Times found in a report that local officials had listed several projects relating to water supply upgrades and improvements as “highest priority,” but many were not completed and are now under scrutiny due to the fires. These are some of the proposals that have been slow to pan out to secure the water supply for some Los Angeles neighborhoods and surrounding areas.
