The Sheriff's Office of Emergency Services (OES) received the Cal Firewise grant which supports the creation of printed materials that help residents understand defensible space requirements and learn practical ways to make their properties more resistant to wildfire. The updated handbook will include information about local fire departments, how wildfires spread, common causes of fires, and strategies for preventing human‑related ignitions. It will also outline state and local vegetation‑clearing laws, along with guidance on hardening homes against wildfire. Additionally, the handbook will cover evacuation procedures, including what to pack and how residents can help ensure firefighters have the best possible conditions to protect their homes if necessary.
