mandeville and agoura fires devastate homes Raging flames devastated 31,000 acres and 186 homes in the Agoura and Mandeville Canyon fires, which began late in October. I have lived through floods, a hurricane in the Marianna's (islands) and an earthquake, said a Malibu resident, but this is the worst thing I have ever experienced. I thank Cod we are alive. More than 700 firefighters battled the blaze along with approximately 100 units and equipment from as far as Redding in Northern California on call. Six helicopters and four air tankers fought the blaze from the air. Santa Ana winds of 60 mph intensified the fire's boundaries. The fire jumped several points along Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) and burned a section of the Broad Beach area. A day later, homes at Broad Beach were still smoldering. A young couple was sifting through the rubble and ash that was all that remained of their two-story beachfront home. The woman came across a porcelin bowl that was not damaged and showed her husband, Can you believe this didn't break? Within a week after the blaze, the firefighters had flames completely under control. A bill providing low cost loans to fire victims was approved in Washington in Februrary and was retroactive as of Oct. 1. The Small Business Administration (SBA) approved $3,840 million of the $13 million that was requested by the home and business owners. Rep. Barry Goldwater, R-Woodland Hills, initiated the bill and pledged at a Malibu community meeting that he would sponsor such legislation as soon as he went back to Washington. The bill provided loans with three percent interest for the first $55,000 to the homeowner and five percent interest to businesses for the first $250,000. Loans above the stated amount were charged 7 3 8 percent, the current interest cost to the Federal Government. Despite federal aid, the Agoura and Mandeville Canyon fire left an indelible impression. Foxes, rabbits and rats were running everywhere and the horses were taken to the beach, said Dr. William Stivers, Seaver College professor of languages and a Paseo Canyon resident. A couple of Pepperdine students were going down the coast highway, and they turned into our neighborhood and asked one woman if they could help. She had them water down her roof, and they stayed though the fire was burning all around them. She didn't even know their names. news 20
