  • Team Upland Participates in the Great California ShakeOut

    City staff, along with customers and visitors, participated in the Great California ShakeOut at City Hall, the Upland Police Department, Public Works, Magnolia Recreation Center, and the Gibson Senior Center by practicing earthquake response procedures and building evacuations. This annual drill helps ensure everyone is prepared to respond quickly and safely during a real earthquake or other emergency.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this year's ShakeOut a success and for your continued commitment to keeping Team Upland and our community safe.
