Outtrage residents have left the officials of Los Angeles because they asked them to do volunteer work to clean up a BrandraAppark.
The LA fires caused widespread destruction in South California in January, in which 29 people were killed and left 175,000 homeless people.
In Altadena, where the Eaton Fire demolished more than 6,000 houses, local officials ask residents to throw in and do volunteer work to clean up Loma Alta Park.
“Sign up with us to celebrate Earth Day in Altadena!” Said a kite shared by Supervisor Kathryn Barger.
'With your help, Loma Alta Park will be the first public park that can be reopened for the Altadena community after the devastating Eaton Fire. Bring your garden tools and brushes and wear comfortable shoes and clothing! '
The local population has destroyed the call for action as a 'tone deaf', and claimed that civil servants should give priority to helping their homes to rebuild their homes before they opened a park.
“This is wild deaf and offensive. This area is under a health advice. We are all financially ruined and are fighting insurance companies, “said one person.
'Why do you plan events that play in the story of the insurance companies? What the hell is happening here? Did you ask the residents if this would be useful? '

Another said: 'Wow! This is a joke. This is disgusting and offensive for the community that has lost so much and is struggling to get through every day! We ask us to do volunteer work and bring tools when so many people lost everything. Serious?'
'Real? Can our government please just talk to the actual people who go through all this and make decisions based on our actual needs? This is dangerous, “a third person added.
Others pointed out that the land in the park has not been tested for contamination and can still be dangerous.
“I live across the street, I have an asbestos pollution that was quite expensive to confirm, no help from insurance, lead contamination – very little support from the insurance,” a person said.
'You have to explain why these funds are most suitable here and what you have done to ensure that the children can even be in this ground, this is deeply worrying. I don't want to be around here. '
“Is this not premature? Have you done soil tests to see if it is safe for children? “said another.
The La County Department of Parks and Recreation said that the Los Angeles Times personal protective equipment will be available for volunteers and the soil will be tested after cleaning up.
“After this the land will be tested by a contractor and the results will be shared with the community,” said the spokesperson.

Barger defended the opportunity for the La Times and said that she had “repeatedly heard from Altadena leaders and community groups that it was important” to recover services for families, children and seniors. '
“Some members of the community wonder why this project, why a park like the surrounding community looks like a war zone and there is so much need,” Barger said.
“But I have also heard many calls for repairing community services, so I support this project.”
