Document Description
The city has identified six treatment areas within the city's greenbelt system where high fire hazard conditions exist due to high fuel loads. If exposed to wildland fire conditions these areas could result in substantial health, safety, and welfare effects to the built/human environment adjacent to the greenbelts as well as to the natural resource environmental within the greenbelts.
The objective of the proposed project is to reduce the risk of wildfire in the identified six high fire hazard areas for a period of 5-10 years through fuel reduction actions undertaken by the city. These measures would be conducted in a manner that reduces adverse environmental effects and implements goals for resource and habitat management.
