Stay safe,
Residents of Beverly Glen, Inc.
Dear Glen Residents:
Since the outbreak of COVID-19 we understand that life has
been disrupted in immeasurable ways for everyone. As Residents of Beverly Glen
is a community organization, we wanted to share some information and a request
during this difficult and unprecedented time.
First, we want to ensure everyone is aware of credible sources
for up-to-date information and news. Here is a sample of sources you can visit:
Center for Disease Control: https://www.cdc.gov/
City of Los Angeles: https://www.lacity.org/
CA Department of Public Health: https://www.cdph.ca.gov/
Second, life for many residents may be impacted differently and
more significantly than for others. Please consider checking in with neighbors –
do they have everything they need? How can you help? In very difficult times
like this it’s important to stay safe, but to also care for those who may need a
little extra help. Please consider doing what you can to help others.
Finally, you’ve may have already read many times over what
you can do remain healthy and prevent the possible spread of the virus, but we
think it bears repeating:
From the California Department of Public Health:
“Every person
has a role to play. So much of protecting yourself and your family comes down
to common sense:
- Washing hands with soap and water.
- Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces daily. If surfaces are dirty, clean them using detergent or soap and water prior to disinfection.
- Avoiding touching eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands.
- Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue or your elbow.
- Avoiding close contact with people who are sick.
- Staying away from work, school or other people if you become sick with respiratory symptoms like fever and cough.
- Following guidance from public health officials.”
- Best practice is to also practice social distancing, which includes keeping a 6 foot distance from any other person when out in a public setting.
Thank you for doing your part, and we hope everyone remains safe
and healthy.
A friendly reminder that ROBG is hosting an emergency preparedness training with Map LA tonight at LDRCC (10409 Scenario Lane). The meeting is open to all residents and we encourage you to attend.

Dear friends and neighbors,
I am writing, not to alarm you, but to make you aware.
I was notified that a coyote was spotted carrying away someone’s pet in the past 2 days on North Beverly Glen Blvd.
I was also notified that a mountain lion was seen crossing NBG up near Mulholland in the past week.
Please keep your pets indoors, day and night during this heat wave and high predator activity season.
Always walk them on a close leash. Walk different routes.
DO NOT FEED OR PUT WATER OUT FOR WILD ANIMALS. It is against the law!
Remember, these wild animals are not afraid of people. We live in an Urban Forrest.

Staying safe together,
