At least if there is logical compromise it would seem that an easy compromise would be to simply bolster the current RAFT program or Section 8 via individual housing authorities and give them the power to screen and issue some type of temporary COVID housing voucher to pay the rent. 

But what's the difference at most other than the job quality is the housing quality, 400k home in oakland would be very different than 400k home in birmingham or in Dallas.This time around, in 2023, we see almost similarities compare to 2001 dotcom crash but itseems 2023 would be more impactful because (a) now we have more distributed human resources that can do engineering (b) most companies are having established setup in Texas and also in India, so it's easy to switch group location (c) most of these remote office outside bay area also already able handling core product that generates company revenue , for exampl I would not be surprise if by 2028, Apple would move their core IOS team to Austin, it's high probability now and something that's unthinkabl 5 years ago (d) Having said that, it's the quality of the job that's being moved in-shore or out-shore that's mind boggling (e) The quality of people that got laid off in 2023 is super high quality people, lot of people that has wrote US patent has been laid off, usually these kind of groups are very untouchable but not at this time (f) the impact of automation and AI is also mind boggling, the job cuts because of AI has been started, in the tech industry itself, although everyone is still confuse of what would happen in the future and everyone is skeptical but carrying their hype around (i) since CFO is more powerful than CTO, so we would see the trend of cost cuttting more and more, big company can just layoff 20-30% non-stop or they would start consolidating in the industry which would trigger another 50% cut of layoffs in managerial position or administration position.We are already in tech recession in CA.

Luckily the lake it is on is not all that remote and the shore is only 500ft or so from the island.

IMO, a necessary function of the door that I could see is that it acts as a temporary shield against fire in the home.

I beleive Placer county put a temporary stop on issuing new permits, and I'm not sure how it works in the other lake counties.   

They are all little quirky and different and sometimes have rate specials or other temporary offers

As a caveat, this includes all property including government land which is unlikely to change hands often.A temporary version of my map can be found on this link, you may need to click the image to see its full resolution.

You should talk to your Zoning & Planning Dept. to see if you can get a temporary permit for that. 

Sure, a bit:  Deserving applicants can be referred to the Middlesex County Board of Social Services  (website below:) https://middlesexsocialservices.com/programs/and they administer temporary housing assistance, long term housing assistance (section 8), emergency relocation (think domestic abuse victims, flood victims, etc.) and other programs. 

The reason there are so many vacant houses still on the shore is because they never got fixed after sandy.
