Need Your Help Collecting Hours For Firewise Activities

 

Every year to maintain our neighborhood Firewise Status, we need to complete work in our neighborhood to help remove the risk of wildfires.  This status helps show that we have a reduced risk from wildfires and that can help with insurance rates and even insurability.

 

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

 

We need help with information about the tasks you are doing around your homes to remove you own risk, which can include raking pine needles, leaves and debris, trimming trees, removing trees, mowing your grass, cleaning out your gutters and downspouts and almost any cleanup work you are already doing around your house.  Select this Link to see a full list of Firewise tasks that you can include.  For example, I had to have 3 trees removed due to beetle kill – and that counts!

 

WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU:

 

We need you to send us information about any work you have done in 2024 on these efforts.  If you did any work around your own home that is on this list, please send us that information.  You can send this to my email at k_dday@yahoo.com or to the Burland HOA email ay burlandhoa@yahoo.com. 

 

We need the following information:

 

Name

Address

What work you completed

An estimate of how many hours you spent on the task or tasks and/or any monies spent for this work

 

You can list things out as separate tasks or just list it as a total for the year.  Anything you can do will help with our reporting efforts for this year (2024).  This will support us getting our Firewise status to Good Standing for 2025.

 

Thank you all in advance for your help with this information.  Your information will help us get our Firewise status secured for 2025!
