Destroyed homes will not be listed on Assessor's site

It turns out that the San Bernardino County Assessors office will not be posting on their Web site a list of homes destroyed in the fires.

Assessor Bill Postmus called the Sun to say that the lists will be released tomorrow. He wants to be able to contact as many victims as possible first.

"We have to be sensitive to these people who have lost their homes," Postmus said. He added that it could only increase their trauma to learn of their loss via a Web site.
