Officials began lifting some evacuation orders on Saturday, allowing about 1,000 residents to return to their homes.

About 11:30 a.m., they issued a press release saying the following areas are no longer under mandatory evacuation:

» Ashley Road and all roads east
» Mission Canyon below Tunnel Road.  (Mission Canyon north of Tunnel Road remains closed)
» Alameda Padre Serra (APS) west of Arboledo to Mission. All roads north of APS between Arboledo and 5 Points remain closed
» Eucalyptus Hill Road and all other adjacent access roads

Residents in these areas may return to their homes.  County and city officials said residents should note that APS east of Five Points to Barker Road is closed. (Residents of Overlook Lane are permitted with ID.) Also, Barker Pass Road between Eucalyptus Hill Road and Sycamore Canyon will remain closed.

All other mandatory evacuation orders remain in effect.  A boil water order remains in effect for the area north of Alameda Padre Serra (APS) between Mission Canyon Road and Sycamore Canyon Road / Coyote Road.  Please refer to the Boil Water Order Reminder news release (SBC-JIC Tea Fire 003).

This evacuation order modification allows approximately 1,000 residents to return to their homes.  We are currently monitoring and evaluating the situation to provide for a safe, orderly, and timely return of residents to their homes.

I heard on the radio (99.9) that this is not true.  Can you confirm what is true?
