GOVERNMENT
Assemblyman Jim Patterson's Clean Up Guide:- Those who want to use a licensed contractor and pay for cleanup with their insurance can officially opt-out of the government cleanup.
- If you have insurance and want to use the government cleanup, you can, but you must agree to give the “debris removal” portion of your insurance payout to the state.
- Make sure you property is on the county’s structure status map.
- If your residence is not listed on the structure status map, call the County of Fresno at (559) 600-5000.
