Reduce Wildfire Risks and Costs
Oregon should be spending 10-20 times more on its fire prevention. That’s why home insurance increases 30-40% EACH YEAR and rents are sky high.
I will institute Oregon’s first Home Hardening Task Force: a team that educates families in rural Oregon on how to harden their homes. A similar system in California and Colorado have led to decreases in insurance rates.
I will fight every day for more affordable housing. But affordable housing also means ensuring that housing STAYS affordable. We need to ensure that costs are reduced for all home owners around the counties.
Do you know about the 3 defensible space zones? What about ladder fuel? What’s the ideal vent covering width? Knowing this can lower your costs and save your home.
