Communities rebuild the same wildfire vulnerability after disaster

#00254

Pressure to restore housing quickly leads communities to rebuild in the same indefensible locations with the same materials, access limitations, and infrastructure weaknesses—reproducing the conditions that caused the original disaster.

#00332Require wildfire-resilient reconstruction standards

Make post-fire rebuilding meet current wildfire, ember, access and infrastructure standards rather than restoring the previous vulnerable condition.

#00333Support relocation from indefensible wildfire sites

Offer voluntary, fair and community-informed relocation where credible analysis shows that safe evacuation and structure defense cannot be achieved.

#00334Provide long-term health, livelihood and mental-health recovery

Sustain coordinated health, housing, income and psychosocial support beyond the emergency period for people and communities affected by wildfire.
