What is a Firewise Community? Currently, we are working on becoming a Firewise Community. There are 5 major components of the program. The following 5 steps are required to become a Firewise-recognized community:
- Create a board or committee of volunteers to represent your community (we have 10 regular volunteers)
- Complete a Community Risk Assessment (currently working on with Fire Department)
- Develop a three-year action plan
- Host an Annual Outreach Event (9/8/24)
- Compile volunteer hours reporting home hardening activities and maintaining defensible space via the Agoura Hills Firewise Portal
A Firewise Community plan may help reduce the cost of insurance for our homeowners.
