We’re just 48 hours away from our annual Town Hall on Wildfire Preparedness, Response and Prevention.
This interactive virtual meeting that you won’t want to miss is happening this coming Wednesday, April 15th at 6 p.m.
We’ll be joined by CAL FIRE Northern Region Chief George Morrris, Santa Rosa Fire Chief Scott Westrope, and Lake County Fire Protection District Chief Willie Sapeta to discuss the critical investments California is making to increase firefighting resources, better protect at-risk communities, and manage a hotter climate and 365-day fire season. These fire experts will also provide a critical forecast into this year’s wildfire outlook, while detailing community response networks and the most effective steps that neighbors can take to prepare for wildfires this year.
The town hall will be livestreamed here.
