Rebuild

LOW-IMPACT EVENT SITE

Low to moderate damage, loss of life, and population and economic dislocation; primarily requires repair or restoration of homes and facilities

Replan

HIGH-IMPACT EVENT

Extensive destruction, loss of life, population and economic dislocation; requires replanning and major reconstruction

If only a few buildings within a neighborhood are damaged, they will likely be rebuilt according to existing plans and codes.

If damage extends across many buildings or is located in an area characterized by substantial hazards, it may be necessary to replan some parts of neighborhood.

Neighborhood

Replan vs. Rebuild?

If small pockets of a neighborhood are damaged and infrastructure is minimally disrupted, it is likely to be rebuilt to existing plans and codes.

If many buildings are damaged and lifelines - like power and water are disrupted - or if damage is located in an area characterized by substantial hazards, the neighborhood may need to be replanned.

“No Build” Buffer Zone

Replan Site

As part of a long-term fire protection and watershed health plan, Pendaries may wish to consider establishing a “no build” buffer zone on vacant properties where the fire hazard risk is highest. This would allow the community to intentionally manage ecological health and fire mitigation strategies more effectively . Within this “no build” zone there would be opportunity for unique ecotourism and lowimpact recreation.

An alternative to private management of this buffer zone would be partnering with public land trusts or land easements as a long-term ecosystem resiliency strategy.
