Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department Chief Aaron Lacey, Pleasanton Police Chief Tracy Avelar and city emergency services manager Leo Lopez each heard directly from councilmembers as they expressed how thankful they were for everyone’s quick response to the “Little Fire”, which burned roughly 1,007 acres to the southeast of the Ruby Hill neighborhood after igniting on the afternoon of July 21.
