Air is essential to life. The quality of the air around us can affect our day-to-day experiences and our relationships: if not well-maintained, overall quality of life seems to deteriorate. Moreover, the environment can also be adversely affected, leading to ecological damage alongside long-term health concerns. Good air quality is fundamental to well-being of both the community and the planet.
Roughly one quarter of Paramount’s land-use is zoned for industrial purposes; as such, the city and its leaders are tasked with giving special consideration and support to the air quality monitoring within our community. The city is dedicated to supporting the regulatory experts on air quality issues and working closely with them to protect the health and welfare of Paramount residents.
