@blitzed > why wasn't brush cleared around those areas
sounds an awful lot like 'why don't you eradicate every little bit of green space in and around LA'
which may be reasonable in retrospect but ...people are going to oppose that because living in a greenspace-less concrete open-air prison is not something anyone actually wants

@jeffcliff They need drought tolerant/fire resistant landscaping, also need to periodically prune everything way back. Prudent to just remove the flammable eucalyptus trees, etc. One thing it is all extremely costly. I know an old lady who has a short run of eucalyptus trees on little patch of land she owns behind her backyard fence along the street. $50,000 to remove it all /0\
San Diego County sends out notices to all property owners to cut firebreaks and clear brush. My sister owns a home on a lot with a lot of useless land sloping down into canyon to road below...they have to cut back all the mustard weeds, and prune or remove the trees each year in prep for fire season.

Obviously in retrospect.

Exactly.
LA has issues and has obviously not been dealing with them.

@jeffcliff This is cyclical for decades. Millennia really, Native American Indians had to manage the land vs. wildfires too...
Also, chemtrailing the chaparral with nano-particulate aluminum, barium, etc. essentially acts as THERMITE...

@jeffcliff It accumulates on the chaparral & rooftops, helps stoke the fires as much as the Santa Ana Winds.
