Carolann we to were aware of the possibility of lava consuming our home in our lifetime. And I have no problem on that account we don’t even need lava insurance to collect on our loss. I understand when the lava gets to within 50-100 feet of your home your home simply bursts into flames and will burn to the ground.
You then collect your insurance money and build a new home somewhere else.
My issue is that if the only access to our area is blocked and we have to evacuate our neighborhood we can’t collect a penny because you have no loss.
(Royal Hawaiian Gardens) Everyone in the effected area looses his or her investment and most of us can’t afford to build or buy somewhere else as in the burst into flames scenario.
Therefore, the second issue with the government is the second access road in lower Puna. I know it's something that Rob Tucker has been working on for a long time and it seems that it is a very important issue now that the lava is creeping down the hill.
