As neighborhoods in Santa Rosa were destroyed by last year’s October wildfires, many are making good on its promise to rebuild one year later.

But one community where homes were spared is facing the opposite.

Homes are still red-tagged in the Journey’s End neighborhood where two people died in the devastating fire.

Part of this mobile home neighborhood was destroyed by the Tubbs Fire.

As for the homes still standing, tenants have no idea how long it’s going to be until they can move back in this red-tagged neighborhood.

It was an early October morning when flames ripped through a small community in Santa Rosa. Robert Morgan sprang into action when a raging inferno destroyed part of his Journey’s End mobile home neighborhood

His actions spared these homes and the Kaiser hospital next door.

Yet untouched by the flames, homeowners were not happy with his heroic moves.

“I’ve had at least a half a dozen messages on my phone distraught and irate about what’s going on and that doesn’t feel very good,” Morgan said.

The homes are condemned and have been red-tagged ever since.

As other neighborhoods are rebuilding from the wildfires, these tenants are on hold with no insurance benefits.

“A lot of these homes can’t be moved because they’re too old but the insurance companies said, ‘Yeah they’re fine. You can live in it but you can’t live in it here. You lost it,’ but they don’t see it that way,” Morgan said.

Two residents died in the blaze–Jessica Tunis’ mother Linda and Marilyn Ress.

“This community, you know, they’re never going to be together again, and it’s really sad,” Tunis said.

A memorial sits in the front of the fenced neighborhood.

“It has been a very difficult year, and this week has been difficult and very healing,” Tunis said.

They are healing through newfound friendships with her mother’s neighbor and their daughter but still a long road for these homes that are still sitting here with no resolution.

Residents do have access to get in and out of but cannot stay overnight.

Our calls to the property management and owners were not returned, but residents tell KRON4 the owners plan to turn this lot into senior living apartments.
