Utilities NEW
Is the power out, and when is it coming back? Where does the Palisades really get its electricity, and why does 90272 skip the brownouts? Which street light stands on your corner, and what would one cost on a street that has none? And where would the green transformer box land in front of your house once the lines go underground? One map answers all four: Outages, Power Sources, Street Lights and Lines & Boxes.

60 Certificates of Occupancy checked Oct 19, 2026
Rebuild
Permits, expedited approvals, and the steps from burned lot to rebuilt home — the City reports 60 rebuild certificates of occupancy covering 58 unique addresses: 3 in September and 11 in October so far. Latest certificate: October 15, 2026.
Certificates count permits; addresses count locations. Several certificates can share one address. The map separately counts parcels with completed main-building work. These figures do not count families who have moved back.
