Brush fires occur year round. Low rainfall, low humidity, and high temperatures create very dry brush conditions. As a homeowner living in the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, you play an important role in preparing your home to survive a destructive Brush Fire, and to help your firefighters protect your home.

Survey the potentially hazardous conditions around your home and in your neighborhood. Give special attention to the clearance of hazardous vegetation and create a defensible space to protect your home and family by thinning vegetation. Make use of proper maintenance and plant selection of landscape vegetation, which contributes to the spread of fire and poses a threat to structures.

Please do your part by completing your brush clearance and ornamental vegetation maintenance to help us protect your community.
