Firewise Application Submitted
Thanks to everyone that sent your mitigation information for the application!
Thanks to everyone that submitted your hours and/or costs for mitigation of your properties this year. I have submitted the application for review to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and with your help - some very impressive accomplishments.
Each year, NFPA establishes an amount of hours or investment that a community must contribute to qualify as a Firewise community. This investment can be time or money invested. For time commitments, NFPA assigns a per hour value of $31.80 per hour.
For this application, NFPA required an investment (time and/or money) of $32,849.40 for our neighborhood.
I am very excited to report that will all your help, we had a total investment (time and/or money) of $92,070.70 for our neighborhood. That is nearly $60,000 in investment over the goal! That is of course before NFPA completes their review of our application.
Thank you all for your help with this information. Your information will help us get our Firewise status secured for 2025!
