Should they need rescuing, they're not just risking their own lives but those of the people trying to rescue them. I'd be far more reluctant if there wasn't so much prior warning and evidence showing that it would be devastating.

"Sorry you lost your house. Here's a $500 fine for making us come get you."

Somehow that just seems really awful.

If you had the ability to leave and chose not to then I don’t see a problem with imposing a small fee for your rescue. While you may think that’s mean, I think staying in the path of a storm that everyone is warning may destroy your home and potentially kill you is stupid. Having said that, I think the fee should be used sparingly and only on those that had the ability to leave. People limited by medical issues and the like would be exempt.
