His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Those who live there are trying to figure out where to go.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dawnell Hunsaker has lived at River Street Camp for about six months. She unzips the front door of her tent. Inside, she has a cot and some personal belongings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It looks like a bedroom. It looks like my bedroom would be,” Hunsaker says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her tent is one of about 50 at the River Street Homeless Camp. The camp is located in a dirt lot near the Tannery Arts Center on River Street. It’s completely enclosed by a metal fence. Once-bright prayer flags hanging above the entrance have faded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Cruz opened the temporary camp in March. Initially, the camp cost around $90,000 a month.

Is it hard to be working, to be helping lead your community, when you've lost your own home?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yeah, it's kind of an understatement. And I think all the elected [officials] are powering on, and pretty much all of us lost homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I lived in a home that was built by my grandfather, and so it really pains me to lose the last presence of my grandparents, because it was their home. But I'm not super materialistic, so losing stuff wasn't a big deal to me. I really value just making it out of there alive and still am really happy about that. And then just absorbing myself in the demands of trying to help others understand the situation they're in. Obviously, I can't speak for other elected [officials], but I see that they're trying to do the same thing and just get the work done and grieve when our people are happy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What's next for the community? With 90 percent of Paradise burned, do you rebuild?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I hope so. As a local leader, I plan on rebuilding. But right now we're still fighting active fire. You can't really move forward yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But let's just say we're ready to go into rebuild mode. A big concern is [that] our water is provided by a special district. There's no one living there, so who's going to pay the bills? The expenses of delivering water for a great number of people when there's only a few people there? It's going to be a huge economic loss for them. Same with the town. If no one moves back, then the town's not going to get sales tax. So they're not going to be able to pay for the personnel and the expenses that they incur. And I think that's the scariest thing, that if people don't commit to rebuilding, it's going to make it really hard for these municipalities in special districts to provide the services that they need to provide to make it amenable for rebuilding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are a lot of mobile homes. And so now those things are gone. The elderly people that used to call this place home, and spend their retirement dollars and recreate, and kind of make it a really great place to retire — that's all changed because of the fire. And who's going to come back?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm hoping retirees that want to leave the high cost of these large urban centers will go, \"Wow, here's a place that had a horrific tragedy, but now is desiring a kind of phoenix from the ash.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kind of the same thing that was in the '60s and '70s. It's going to be a great place to retire. It's going to be a great place to be a bedroom community for Chico. We could create a really nice downtown. We're 26,000 people that don't have a sewer system. It's all in septic. And without more people coming here to call Paradise home and enjoy the recreation that we offer -- like Lake Oroville, Butte Creek Canyon up in the mountains, Lassen Park -- it's just not going to survive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So I hope, I hope they can see the diamond in the rough that it would be for them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>It sounds like despite this tragedy, you're hopeful.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oh, darn right! You know, I had a career as a mechanical engineer. I eventually called Mountain View my home, and I lived there for 13 years. And after a while, it's just like, \"Wow, why am I dealing with this traffic?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it was kind of shocking, I never thought I'd move back home. I never had being a politician, supervisor, on my mind, ever. But you see what a great place this is, and we're only 3½ to four hours from the Bay Area. Less than two hours from Sacramento. And we've got this great community, a college, and you get to go in the mountains and fish and relax. But right now, it's really cool. And I hope people can see that and that they would want to stay and rebuild.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But I get it — people have to have jobs. We just lost pretty much every job that parents had except a few. And that's going to be the challenge. So, you know, open your eyes to what this tragedy is bringing to the masses.

Her rent was $236 a month, a payment she could afford on her $930-a-month disability check.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bolin is still waiting to see what happened to her apartment complex. If it burned to the ground, like so many homes in Paradise, Bolin is afraid that she has run out of housing options.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know what kind of home we’re going to have and what can we afford,” Bolin said. “We can’t stay in a hotel all the time. I might be out on the streets with two cats. Oh my God.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unfortunately, Bolin won’t be the only Butte resident facing this dilemma. The Camp Fire destroyed more than 9,800 residences in a region that was already experiencing a housing crunch. Before the wildfire, Butte County’s vacancy rate was 1.5 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In practical terms, that meant the the county was experiencing an extreme housing shortage before the fire, said Ed Mayer, executive director of the Butte County Housing Authority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve been underproducing housing for our citizenry for any number of years,” Mayer said. “So the capacity of California and local communities to absorb such a disaster is very very limited.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Paradise sits in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. It’s known for its natural beauty and for being affordable. With Chico just 15 miles to the east, Paradise was also close to many “big city” services like hospitals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now, with Paradise wiped out, where do they go?” Mayer asked. “They’re not going to find many other places in California that offered the same combination of affordability and proximity to services.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Camp Fire hasn’t just exacerbated the county’s housing shortage, it could leave many of the thousands of fire victims homeless. As of Friday morning, 9,700 single residences and 144 multiple residences were destroyed in the Camp Fire, and officials estimate there are about 1,000 housing units available in Butte County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer said the county is considering opening temporary housing at fairgrounds where people can park RVs or live in large walled tents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that is little consolation to Luis Batres, who lived in Magalia, a small town just north of Paradise. The Camp Fire also ravaged most of the town and Batres’s house is probably gone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11706503\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11706503\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/RS33961_Image-from-iOS-4-qut-1020x765.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/RS33961_Image-from-iOS-4-qut-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/RS33961_Image-from-iOS-4-qut-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/RS33961_Image-from-iOS-4-qut-800x600.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/RS33961_Image-from-iOS-4-qut-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/RS33961_Image-from-iOS-4-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Luis Batres and his daughter stand near a roadblock at the entrance to an evacuation zone that their home is in.

It’s known for its natural beauty and for being affordable. With Chico just 15 miles to the east, Paradise was also close to many “big city” services like hospitals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now, with Paradise wiped out, where do they go?” Mayer asked. “They’re not going to find many other places in California that offered the same combination of affordability and proximity to services.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Camp Fire hasn’t just exacerbated the county’s housing shortage, it could leave many of the thousands of fire victims homeless. As of Friday morning, 9,700 single residences and 144 multiple residences were destroyed in the Camp Fire, and officials estimate there are about 1,000 housing units available in Butte County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayer said the county is considering opening temporary housing at fairgrounds where people can park RVs or live in large walled tents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that is little consolation to Luis Batres, who lived in Magalia, a small town just north of Paradise.
