Believe you me . . . the politburo in our State house will be proposing similar legislation next session for the Wildland/Urban interface areas. Might even one-up the one in CA and call for 10 feet instead of 5.
Like it's going to do any good given the majority of homes catch on fire from either embers on the roof and deck or heat transfer through the windows to the flammable materials inside the dwelling instead of flames licking the exterior of the home, but it is the inevitable outcome of legislators enacting legislation based on feelings instead of facts.
Doing something completely illogical is always better than doing nothing after all . . .
