Five months post-firestorm in Pacific Palisades, Mayor Karen Bass confirmed AECOM will assist in developing a master plan for rebuilding and infrastructure. The firm is to collaborate with the city and disaster recovery contractor Hagerty Consulting, who has faced scrutiny regarding its contract details. Mayor Bass emphasized a comprehensive response involving all societal sectors is essential for rapid recovery. Criticism arose from local developer Steve Soboroff regarding the choice of Hagerty as the initial recovery contractor instead of AECOM.
"An unprecedented natural disaster requires an unprecedented, all-hands-on-deck response - all levels of government, philanthropy, the private sector and educational institutions coming together to support the community and rebuild as quickly and safely as possible."
