Update #PalisadesFire - EVACUATION ORDER Brush Fire; INC#0580; 12:30PM; 500 N Palisades Dr; http://bit.ly/2VZtUqV; #PacificPalisades; There is a Mandatory Evacuation Order for all residents within the area bordered by Charmel Lane on the West, Bienveneda Avenue on the East, the end of Lachman Lane on the North, and Merivale Lane on the South. All persons in this area are directed to leave NOW in a calm and orderly manner. This is due to both potential fire and smoke behavior as well as the pending arrival of large fixed-wind retardant dropping aircraft. Evacuating residents are asked to notify their neighbors of this Mandatory Evacuation Order, and to offer what evacuation assistance they can to neighbors who have mobility or functional needs.; FS 23; Batt 9; West Bureau; Council District 11; CH5; 13 16; Brian Humphrey

Update #PalisadesFire Brush Fire; INC#0580; 12:05PM; 800 N Palisades Dr; http://bit.ly/2VZtUqV; Pacific Palisades; There are no reports of civilian or firefighter injury, and no structures are believed to have sustained significant damage. This is due to strong overall compliance with strict brush clearance regulations and a lack of wind. The earlier mention of 30+ acres consumed was indeed an estimate, and as conditions permit, we will devote the resources for a formal size of this terrain-driven blaze, which may be significantly smaller than that number; FS 23; Batt 9; West Bureau; Council District 11; Radio Channels: 5; 13, 16; - Brian Humphrey
