And it's even more pathetic that almost nothing damaged has been rebuilt yet due to extreme layered permitting requirements

This was my point on a thread a couple of days ago. It's probably what absolutely terrifies me the most about the left. At the local, state, or federal level, the democrat party is electing people based purely on leftist ideology. They don't even consider whether the individual is remotely qualified to do the job. They don't care if they can actually run a city, a county, the Department of Defense, NASA, etc. It's why Florida is booming and California is falling apart. It's why a year after the Palisades fires literally nothing has been done and yet a year after a hurricane in Florida, you wouldn't even know it happened.
Non serious people, electing non serious people, which no real interest in the job itself, only their radical agenda.

. California has long had a lot of hoops to jump through to build. While a barrier, if you got through them you could make money. I'm sure there are even more hoops today.MouthBQ98 said:

The goal is to stall on permits until people give up and sell the property. Major firms come in, buy up the land. Possibly at a reduced value, then build multi family living.

But how much infrastructure would have to be added for multi family housing? Who is going to pay for that?

The sad thing a lot of those folks were only house rich. Palisades, as I understand was a VERY expensive area, but there were quite a few "normal" middle class folks living there in inherited properties. (I forget the Prop #) Since property tax are frozen in the year of acquisition I heard (podcast interview) that many in that neighborhood were folks in inherited properties. They were mortgage free paid off home rich, but for all intents jsut average middle class folks that now have no way of being able to afford the rebuild on a property worth a small fraction of what it was pre-fire.
