They wish that was the problem
its usually a yearly thing and the rainy season is not over yet.

the leadership there should have done much more to manage the forest areas and ensure the reservoirs were full.

instead they thought they could simply rely on the normal cycle of winter rain wiping out the forest fire threat. This year mother nature did not cooperate with their plan of indifference.

Yes. But it's a La Nina this year. But don't worry. That chicken will come home to roost.

When the mudslides happened in Montecito (another enclave of rich liberals) a few years ago, it was amazingly devastating.
but yet they keep rebuilding their million dollar homes expecting a different outcome

But one way or another someday no matter what, the Palisades fire was absolutely going to happen.
absolutely, the question is what did the leadership do to minimize the impact of those fires?
deforestation ? nope
make sure the reservoirs are full? nope
a quick response with adequate resources? nope

Just like in hurricane country and low lands that flood all the time. Let people build there but make it against the law to sell homeowners insurance there. I'm tired of having my insurance rates go up and coverages disappearing because those asshats want to build where god don't want them to.

Not one of these criminals lives any where near the evacuation / fire zones.

Definitely a difficult situation to handle. Sadly it takes big events to get change.
