📰 News we're reading
• wildfire-mitigation-insurance-savings (fresnobee.com) — Homeowners in Napa County communities including Yountville are seeing that serious wildfire-mitigation work can sometimes move them off the costly California FAIR Plan and back to conventional insurance, though savings vary. Local officials describe millions invested in defensible space and home hardening, while insurers slowly reenter high-risk areas, leaving Yountville residents balancing upgrade costs against rising premiums and ongoing wildfire threats.
