This summer residents in the Regional District of Fraser-Fort George electoral areas can request a complimentary Home Ignition Zone Assessment.
The assessment is designed by FireSmart to identify how a home and the 30 metres around it are vulnerable to wildfire. Regional District team members are trained as Local FireSmart Representatives to conduct Home Ignition Zone Assessments and then residents can undertake projects that can significantly lower the intensity of a fire and its ability to spread. Residents can contact the Regional District to request a Home Ignition Zone Assessment.
