Earlier on Tuesday, Santa Barbara Sheriff's Department officials confirmed to E! News that plans were indeed in the works for a Neverland memorial.
"Our role will primarily be traffic, but also crowd control," department spokesperson Lt. Butch Arnoldi told E!. "We will also be making sure there is no trespassing on neighboring ranches and stuff like that. We would be stationed on the perimeter of the house. The actual roadway will be the responsibility of the CHP."
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Michael's brothers — Jackie, Jermaine and Tito Jackson — made a trip to the Santa Barbara County ranch over the weekend, following the death of their brother.
