As of 10:45 a.m., Friday, June 15, the pre-evacuation order
is still in effect for Mesa Cortina and Wildernest neighborhoods above Twenty
Grand Road. Anyone who crosses into the pre-evacuation zone is receiving an emergency
notification of the pre-evacuation on their phone. This message has been
causing some confusion. To clarify, this is not a new pre-evacuation order.
People who enter the zone are receiving notification about the existing
pre-evacuation order that has been in place since 3 p.m., Thursday, June 14. We
are working to turn off the notification to reduce the confusion it is causing.
Please note that as of 10:45 a.m. today, local and federal officials
are meeting to discuss the current level of fire risk to the neighborhoods in
the pre-evacuation zone. They will evaluate whether current conditions merit any
change in pre-evacuation status. We will notify the public and the media about
any changes.
