Aukum Fairplay Fire Safe Council
Aukum Fairplay FireSafe Council Needs Your Help!
Several Council Members have had to retire recently from the Council, leaving several vacancies.
We need new Council Members willing to provide just a bit of time to help our community continue our fire safety work.
So what have we done for you!
1. Acquired Firewise Certification that allows for discounts on fire insurance.
2. Successfully gained a large grant to thin vegetation along our major roads, and a fuel break at Outingdale, work that will be starting in a few months.
3. Provide free defensible space and home hardening evaluations.
4. Provide reflective address signs to help emergency responders find you.
5. Distribute essential information and presentations or fire safety, evacuation, defensible space, home hardening, and more.
6. Free chipping Days for your cut vegetation.
7. And our parent organization, EL Dorado County FireSafe Council, provides free programs, including chipping, senior/vet/disabled defensible space work, and hazard tree programs.
Please contact John Hess at jhess1776@innercite.com or text at 916-223-2548 for Council participation.
