An evacuation notice was in place at one point for residents along Princess Joann and Dakota Ranch roads, according to the SDSO. Deputies were going door to door notifying residents. A temporary evacuation center was set up at Santana High School.
At around 4 p.m., Cal Fire said the fire's forward spread had been stopped at 36 acres. Crews were expected to be on scene for several more hours until the fire is fully contained.
About 30 minutes later, the SDSO said evacuation notices had been lifted and roads closed due to the fire were back open.
No structure damage or injuries were reported.
