West County getting Critical Help with its Defensible Space
Safer West County and Fire Safe Sonoma have partnered to support west county communities in creating and maintaining defensible space. The grant includes the purchase of chippers leased to local fire departments in:
- Camp Meeker,
- Forestville,
- Monte Rio, and
- Occidental.
The goal is to help residents do more fuel reduction work without the cost of renting chippers or hiring companies to do the chipping or burning materials.
