LAFD’s Repopulation in Brentwood and West LA is Complete as Wildfire Evacuation Orders Ease

Residents in Brentwood, West LA Granted Reentry; Power Restoration Efforts Underway

Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) officials repopulation efforts are complete in Brentwood, West Los Angeles, and mountain areas between West Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley. All zones are now open for resident-only access, while others have been downgraded from warning zones to normal. On Mandeville Canyon road, homes past Chalon require a police escort.

As of Sunday, January 19, the Palisades Fire is now 56% contained, per CAL FIRE. On Sunday, LADWP crews reported that they have restored electric service to customers in the Brentwood, Encino, and Bel-Air areas that were previously without power to protect public safety. According to LADWP, crews worked through the night to make repairs and restore service to the remaining 1500 customers who were unable to be restored overnight Friday.  

LADWP advised that any customer in the Brentwood, Encino, or Bel-Air neighborhoods without power should first reset their circuit breaker. If your power is still out, please report it by calling 1-800-DIAL-DWP (1-800-342-5397). 

Residents seeking reentry must adhere to proof-of-residency requirements and safety protocols outlined in earlier updates. Maps and additional details are available through city resources to assist residents in identifying their zones.

The following zones are now accessible to residents:

  • LOS-Q0762-A: North of Mulholland Dr., south of Alonzo Ave., east and west of Mulholland Dr., including Escalon Dr. and Encino Hills Dr.

  • LOS-Q0782-C: North of Carrara Pl., Kenfield Ave., and N Kenter Ave; south and east of N Kenter Ave; west of Mount Saint Mary’s Fire Rd.

Certain zones previously under mandatory evacuation orders have been downgraded to warning status, including:

  • LOS-Q0772, LOS-Q0783, LOS-Q0800, LOS-Q1089, LOS-Q1119, and LOS-Q1163 are among other areas cleared of restrictions.

As of Sunday morning, LADWP crews report that they have restored electric service to customers in the Brentwood, Encino, and Bel-Air areas that were previously without power to protect public safety. LADWP crews worked through the night to make repairs and restore service to the remaining 1500 customers who were unable to be restored overnight Friday.  

Any customer in the Brentwood, Encino, or Bel-Air neighborhoods without power should first reset their circuit breaker. If your power is still out, please report it by calling 1-800-DIAL-DWP (1-800-342-5397).
