Thomas Fire Information

Oxnard, California – The Thomas Fire continues to burn in numerous areas of Ventura County. At this time there is no active fire or threat to the City of Oxnard. Resources from the Oxnard Fire and Police Departments continue to assist with the response, and city officials are closely monitoring the spread of the fire.

Sporadic power outages continue throughout the region due to fire and wind conditions. Additionally, numerous roads and highways are closed in and around the fire areas including intermittent closures of Highway 150, Highway 33 and US 101 north of the City of Ventura.

As the winds shift throughout the day, residents can expect that smoke conditions in Oxnard can range from light to heavy. During smoky conditions, residents are advised to limit their physical activity and stay indoors with windows and doors closed as much as possible. Running air conditioning units can also help reduce smoke levels indoors. The use of dust masks (particulate respirators) and eye protection may help reduce these effects but may not be effective for everyone. If you or a family member are experiencing severe or prolonged distress, you should consider temporarily moving out of the area and contacting your doctor.

High winds and “Red Flag” fire conditions are expected to continue throughout the weekend. Residents are asked to use extreme caution when driving and be aware of hazards such as malfunctioning traffic signals, blowing dust, responding emergency vehicles, downed trees, branches and powerlines.

As a reminder there is no threat or active fire in the City of Oxnard. The municipal water system is functioning normally and the water supply is safe to drink. There are no planned utility interruptions or shutdowns scheduled. Residents are urged to monitor local media reports for information and NOT call 911 unless they have an immediate emergency situation. For non-emergency matters, call 805-385-7740

VENDOR REGISTRATION 

As a Public Entity, the City of Oxnard (City) adheres to a transparent public solicitation process, utilizing the online web services of Public Purchase www.publicpurchase.com, a third-party electronic solicitation website that allows vendors to register for specific goods and services by selecting a National Institution of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) code as the commodity part number.  Upon registration with Public Purchase, registered vendor(s) will receive e-mail notifications of upcoming solicitation opportunities for the items your company identified.

Registered vendor(s) will also be able to view all the open solicitations, electronically respond to the solicitations, and see solicitation results when they are awarded.  Additionally, registered vendor(s) will receive notices of any addenda to those solicitations, as well as have the opportunity to post questions and receive answers pertaining to that solicitation.   All questions and answers are posted online so that all vendors have access to the same information regarding the solicitation.

Completion of this process will allow your business to participate in future City business solicitation opportunities.   It also provides the ability to maintain your data as your business grows or changes.

There is NO CHARGE to register for this service.  Public Purchase has other services available for a fee, but that is solely at your discretion and not required to do business with the City.

Just a couple helpful hints before starting your registration:

First, solicitation notifications are based on registered e-mail addresses, hence, it is recommended you use a generic e-mail address for your company, if you have one, and a second email address for a specific individual, if available.  That way, if personal e-mail addresses change, your organization still receives notification of solicitation opportunities.

Secondly, make sure your company has saved the user-name and password in a secure location, so that it is accessible when you are not available.

The City cannot guarantee you will receive notice of every opportunity to sell to the City, so we encourage you to visit our Purchasing website at https://www.oxnard.org/rfps-and-rfqs/ for Solicitation Opportunities on a regular basis for a listing of current solicitation solicitations.

In honor of Women’s History Month, the Oxnard Public Library will host “Sam the Piano Man” who will talk about women composers during the ragtime era. We often hear about the men, such as Scott Joplin, Joseph Lamb, and James Scott, but we seldom hear about the women.

Sam Hobel is a pianist, a freelance writer, and an American music history consultant. He will discuss how in the past, male ragtime composers received more attention than their female counterparts; in fact, women were often excluded from this profession. He will acquaint us with who these composers were, how they lived, and why they didn’t become as famous as their male counterparts.

After the informal lecture, Hobel will delight the audience with “A Ragtime Suite from the Other Wing,” which is a suite he compiled containing excerpts from 12 different ragtime pieces from 11 female composers.

This presentation is free and will take place on Tuesday, March 15, at 4:00 p.m., at the Oxnard Public Main Library in meeting room B. For further information, please call (805) 385-7532.
