Local context
San Leandro contracts for fire and emergency services rather than running its own stand-alone fire department, and it posts local guidance on its official website. The City of San Leandro explains how emergency response and fire prevention efforts are organized throughout the city.
What still is not known
As of the department’s most recent public update, officials had not released any further details about how the fire started, how extensive the property damage might be or whether anyone was hurt. People in the area can expect to see and hear continued emergency vehicle activity while crews remain on scene, and any new information is likely to appear on the department’s social media accounts as the situation develops.
