On the way home from the gym the mayor of Medford came on the radio. He told us the cost of cleaning up EACH burned out house varies from $50,000 up to $150,000 ! The burned material is considered "toxic" and must be disposed of according to some EPA regulation !. The mayor said a few inches of the dirt needs to be put in an oven and heated. What does he think the fire just did? ! Oregon is the only state in the Union that has a land use commission telling each home owner they need to build "A deliberate" house. What the heck does that mean. On a just as annoying note: ANTIFA and Black Lives Matter has moved into Hawthorne Park where no camping is allowed. The chief of police was on and NOT answering a single question, rather dodging everyone of them. The illegal "campers" have been there for a few days. A caller told us listeners since the sky was clear today he and his wife drove to a place at 6:00AM near the college to watch the sunrise. They parked off the road so no one would be blocked from entering the college which is closed. Within minutes a college security and a sheriff arrived and told them to leave ! Like someone posted on another thread.....the police are not your friend. I will add, unless you are breaking the law.

Elections have consequences.
They voted for it, they can enjoy the benefits of it.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

That certainly should not make one skeptical of the information highway coming out of Oregon! What a mess. Ringman, is there any link to this debacle in Hawthorne Park?

Ok having been thru a fire once unfortunately the mayor is partly right. Our house debris in 94' had to be hand sorted into three piles and handled differently and sent to different dumps by EPA regulations. That was over $25K then. Now Minnesotal business owners are discovering that the debris removal is running well over $100K and up to $300K and insurance policy limit for that is normally the same $25K from years ago. Most people are grossly underinsured for fire in the first place and many agents do not even understand how the policy clauses work.

Time will tell!
