KLCC s Brian Bull reports on the rebuilding efforts across the McKenzie River Corridor 10 months past the Holiday Farm FIre.
Hundreds of homes went up in flames during last September’s horrific Holiday Farm Fire. Keir Miller is Lane County’s Land Management Division Manager. He said on the national average, there’s a 25% rebuild rate after five years. The rate’s a little better on the West Coast, but Miller warned there’s still a number of houses – and residents - that won’t be back, for several reasons. Financial, obviously. Perceptions of risk. Individuals just choose to – for whatever reason – move out of the area. Maybe they were getting ready to leave.”
