Community Rating System (CRS) Classification Change
The City of South Pasadena has been notified by the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) that its Community Rating System (CRS) classification has been downgraded from a 7 to an 8. This means that the flood insurance premium discount offered to local policyholders will decrease from 15% to 10%, effective May 1, 2020.
The City lost a large number of CRS points due to a scoring change from FEMA in which credits are no longer awarded for maintenance of man-made stormwater drainage systems. The City had previously received points for its drainage system maintenance activity and the change had a significant impact on the City’s overall score. The Community Improvement Department is working on new opportunities to earn points and is optimistic that the City will be able to return a Class 7 rating.
If you have any questions about the CRS process, please contact the Community Improvement Department.

PUBLIC WELCOME!
Fire Prevention Week is October 8 - 14, 2017
Fire Prevention Week 2017
In a fire, seconds count. Seconds can mean the difference between residents of our community escaping safely from a fire or having their lives end in tragedy.
That's why this year's Fire Prevention Week theme: "Every Second Counts: Plan 2 Ways Out!" is so important. It reinforces why everyone needs to have an escape plan. Some keys to remember:
- Draw a map of you home with all members of your household, marking two exits from each room and a path to the outside.
- Practice your home fire drill twice a year. Conduct one at night and one during the day with everyone in your home.
- Teach children how to escape on their own in case you can't help.
- Close doors behind you as you leave - this may slow the spread of smoke, heat, and fire.
- Once you get outside, stay outside. Never go back into a burning building.
or call the South Pasadena Fire Department at 727-344-1666 to schedule a Fire Safety presentation for your community.
