Gavin Newsom to Ban Plants Within 5 Feet of Homes in Fire-Prone Areas

Newsom won’t provide the water needed to put out fires.  He refuses to clean out the brush and cut the dead trees in the forest and government owned land.  Gavin cut volunteers from firefighting.  This Democrat cut the budget for the State agency that fights fires.  But You better cut plants within five feet of your home.

“California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) plans to ban the use of plants within five feet of residential homes in what are designated as “fire-prone” areas — which could include much of the state of California, given the recent wildfires.”

Like Biden was a pretend President, Newsom is a pretend Governor.  California needs a Revolution in 2026 to end the DOOM LOOP and the destruction of what is left of this former Golden State.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) plans to ban the use of plants within five feet of residential homes in what are designated as “fire-prone” areas — which could include much of the state of California, given the recent wildfires.

Newsom, who has lagged far behind his goals on wildfire prevention, appeared on CNN to tell homeowners that “you can’t rebuild the same,” and that residents would have to rebuild according to “science” and “climate reality.”

The San Francisco Chronicle reported:

Gov. Gavin Newsom is ordering the state to speed up its rulemaking for wildfire safety around homes in fire-prone areas that would ban most plants and combustible materials like mulch and wood fencing.

The rules would require people to clear an area within 5 feet of homes — dubbed zone zero, or an ember resistant zone — of any flammable materials, with the exception of mature trees. The rules would apply only in areas where the risk of fire is rated “very high,” in accordance with the state’s fire-risk designations.

The rules could be costly for homeowners, who would have to tear up vegetation all around their homes.

Newsom has been in Washington, DC, asking the Trump administration for relief money — even as he prepares to sign (or veto) bills that he requested from the state legislature to spend $50 million to “Trump-proof” the state.
