also insurance will likely stop insuring those areas too, the cost is too high. as with the idiots building in wildfire prone areas of california.
They want less building though. It’s a small wealthy New England town.
They think they’re immune to wildfires too, even though it’s all woods and the rate of drought has increased here too. Look at even New Jersey burning now.
I was driving on the parkway going towards jersey city about a week ago and the fire trucks were on both sides of the highway just spraying into the trees to keep it under control. Wild stuff.
