All Pacific Palisades residents can now return home as evacuation orders were lifted following a devastating fire. Mayor Karen Bass highlighted the intense emotional impact on residents. Although no escorts are needed, access passes are required to enter the affected areas. Two-phase cleanup will begin, with hazardous waste removal being the first step. Civic leader Steve Soboroff is leading rebuilding efforts, though timelines are unclear. The city also faces significant financial challenges due to fire damage, underlining the community's hardships and recovery efforts.
"The grief and the pain and the denial and the anger that everybody has been feeling is palpable," said Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass.
"What we have to make sure is they have enough crews working enough hours to do it in enough time," Soboroff said regarding recovery efforts.
