Fire Safe Information located on pages 6-9 of SureWest "Little Book"

The SureWest telephone directory (Little White Book) serving Auburn/Grass Valley/Nevada City now features information (on pages 6-9) to inform and assist you to provide better fire protection for your property. Practical suggestions will include how to achieve "defensible space" and utilize "firewise" landscaping, as well as local and internet-based resources.

Placer County Fire Safe Alliance Programs:

Community "Coffee Klatches" - We'll make a presentation to a you and some of your neighbors, sharing ideas that you can put to use around your property to inprove your chances in a fire. Then we'll arrange for a convenient visit by a Placer County Chipper crew in a couple of weeks, to handle your piles of cleared brush and prunings, leaving the material chipped and ready to be used as mulch.

Realtor Information - To help new residents learn about fire safety and how to protect their property, we can provideinformation for Real Estate agents and brokers to share with their clients. Not only will this help buyers, but it will help sellers maximize the value of their property!

Senior/Disabled Defensible Space Assistance - The Fire Safe Alliance, working with community service agencies and service organizations, tries to assist senior citizens and disabled members of our community by providing free or low cost "fuel reduction" on their property. We will begin with residents in our Fire Safe Council areas and expand as funds are available. If you are a professional landscape management, brush clearing or tree pruning company and wish to participate in this program, please call the Alliance office .
