Yulupa Cohousing is near the evacuation line but OK last I heard. Similar for Santa Rosa Creek Commons, which is half a mile further away from the fires. You can see Yulupa avenue named on many of the Santa Rosa maps, but the community is not at the north end where the fire is spreading most in rural areas. As you read the maps, don’t confuse the evacuation lines with fire lines, much further back. Some Bay Area cohousing communities are offering guest room space for folks who lost homes due to fire or who need to get out of the heavy smoke. The biggest needs I’ve heard the mst about are spaces for families, which single-bed single-Guestroom communities like ours aren’t well-equipped to welcome. Some former creators and residents of East Bay (near San Francisco) communities who moved North to live solo (not always by choice) have lost their homes to fire or are preparing to leave at a moment’s notice. The smoke was briefly tipping air quality in Berkeley/Oakland to unhealthful levels of particles yesterday but winds shifted and things have improved, but there is definitely a smoky smell in the air, 100 miles away. It is a factor here in Berkeley cohousing’s decision-making on furnace replacement: how much should we expect more wildfires due to climate change, and so should a design goal be to filter the air well enough for the Common House to be a refuge when the air outside is not safe to breathe?
