After fatal tragedy and $38 settlement, L.A. council members seek report on power pole repair efforts citywide
Two Los Angeles City Council members introduced a motion requesting a report on the status of pole repairs and other efforts to prevent a repeat of a tragedy that claimed the life of a daughter and father.
The motion also asks for information on investments and resources needed to ensure an improved power distribution infrastructure and pole inspection and repair program. According to reports at the time, Ferdinand Tejada went outside when he heard a "loud pop" at the family's home in the 14700 block of Tupper Street and was electrocuted. His daughter went to his aid and also was killed. The elder Tejada's wife, a nurse, called 911 and was told to stay inside until emergency crews arrived.
"The revamped inspection process using outside contract services identified 1,884 poles in top tier safety threat requiring repair within 24 hours."
