Both of the fires erupted on Jan. 7, forcing tens of thousands to flee in the midst of a severe windstorm that fueled the rapid spread of the flames. By the time both blazes were finally contained, they combined for 37,469 acres burned, 30 people killed, 16, 251 structures destroyed and more than 2,000 buildings damaged.
During Monday's event, leaders will "recognize the six month anniversary of the devastating firestorms that hit Los Angeles, as well as the progress made and steps being taken to rebuild and restore the communities affected," according to a release from Newsom's office.
"Months ahead of expectations, nearly 80% of residential properties in the City of L.A. that were destroyed by the Palisades Fire have been cleared of debris and have received final sign off, a required step in the rebuilding process. More than 1 million tons of debris have been removed," the release said.
Los Angeles County officials say they have received 1,013 rebuilding permits, the majority of which are located in the Eaton Fire zone. For lots that are not rebuilding, there have been an influx of properties listed for sale, with prices ranging from under $300,000 in Altadena to over $3 million in the Pacific Palisades.
