Lassen Fire Safe Council will hold its 2nd monthly community meeting this Wednesday. You can take the opportunity to learn more about ongoing and newly completed wildfire restoration projects and share your thoughts.
The council will discuss grant funding and hear from local Fire agencies, CALFIRE, USFS, and the Sierra Nevada Conservancy. During the council’s September meeting, Cade Mohler, managing director, shared that a PG&E Resiliency Grant was expected to close within the next month. The council has begun to assess different types of home hardening projects with the funding.
