The aftermath.  More than 100 structures had been red-tagged, including Napa’s Community Development Building, which houses the Planning Department and issues building permits. At least 20 more buildings were expected to be deemed unsafe by the end of the day, officials said. 

“As crews do more inspections, I’m anticipating more red tags,” said Councilman Scott Sedgley. “If that is the case, we may have to think about a longer-term solution, besides the Red Cross shelter at CrossWalk Community Church. It can’t all fall on Red Cross.”
