Abstract
The Goals of the Jefferson County CWPP:
protect
against losses to life, property and natural resources from the threat of
wildfire;
instill
a sense of personal responsibility for taking preventative actions
regarding wildfire; strengthen
partnerships to build and maintain active participation in
mitigation and suppression of wildfire from each fire protection agency and
unprotected area;
increase
the ability to prepare for, respond to and recover from wildfires
within the County;
increase
public understanding of living in a fire prone ecosystem;
reintroduce
fire in fire adapted ecosystems;
develop
and distribute easy-to-use,
self-help
guides for property owners
living in fire prone areas, or building homes in fire prone areas;
generate
site development standards to enhance structural survivability in
fire-prone
areas. [From the Plan]
