Of more than 900 homes that burned in CZU August Lightning Complex, 80 property owners receive greenlight to rebuild, according to a newly-released Santa Cruz County database
FELTON — Of more than 900 homes that burned in the CZU August Lightning Complex fire, just 80 property owners have been given the final green light to rebuild, according to a newly-released Santa Cruz County database.
Prior to submitting a permit to rebuild a single family home, fire survivors must obtain fire safety, environmental health and geologic hazard clearances. According to county dashboard data, 217 fire damaged properties have those clearances. More than half those property owners — 109 — have submitted their application packages to rebuild, whereas 80 have received final approval to break ground.
Before property owners can receive such clearances, a debris removal and environmental inspection — or Phase II — must be completed as well. As of August, the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Serviceshad been cleared.
