Cal Matters issued a correction: the state will charge insurers who will then pass the cost to customers, funny how works…
For the record: An earlier version of this story misstated how the FAIR Plan assessment will be charged to consumers. It will be passed along by insurance companies, not charged by the FAIR Plan.
I also shared the article and report on Reddit (Pacific Palisades sub Reddit).
Very disappointed but not surprised that more than a few Palisades residents continue to blame climate change and bash Caruso while defending the execrable Karen Bass.
My favorite comment:
Breitbart has nothing to do with this. The report is independent research. See link in OP. The point is that the winds were manageable. There has been an undercurrent of “OMG THERE WERE 100MPH WINDS EVERYWHERE AND NOBODY IS TO BLAME AND NO PREPARATION COULD HAVE MADE THIS BETTER BECAUSE CLIMATE!” when in fact we know from this report (and from simply being there on the day) that was not the case. The winds were not extreme during the 10-4 period. The report constrains itself to wind speed and does not get into any other issues.
