Assemblymember Juan Alanis (R-Modesto) released the following statement in response to the deadly fire at the Lazy Wheels Mobile Home Park in Ceres.
“I share the city of Ceres’ concerns regarding this entire tragedy,” said Alanis. “(Thursday), I sent a letter to the Director of the Department of Housing and Community Development requesting a meeting to discuss the concerns raised by local officials. Specifically, I want to hear from the Department why, according to media reports and local decision makers, no homes were red-tagged, and what the Department plans to do to address the unsafe conditions at this mobile home park before further harm occurs. The status quo is clearly unacceptable, and the Department needs to be open, honest and transparent about this situation.”
