... that the Santa Ynez Reservoir in Pacific Palisades, which was built to provide water for firefighting, was empty when the 2025 Palisades Fire began?

Source: "The Santa Ynez Reservoir, a 117-million-gallon water resource near the Pacific Palisades, was under renovation and empty when fires tore through the Los Angeles neighborhood last week and firefighters quickly depleted available water resources, city officials said.

The reservoir is intended to provide water storage "for domestic use and fire fighting purposes in the Pacific Palisades area" according to city documents."
