I’m hopping the Fire District can mobilize the basic fire awareness program that was enicated over a decade ago. The basic Fire Wise Program!
All the information still stands, and it is known that the first line of defense is source and latter fuels. The point is timeliness. Now.. is the time for this discussion.
Thanks for whatvever discussion follows.
