What is Firewise?

The Firewise USA ® program provides our community with a framework for reducing the risk of wildfire. Meeting the criteria for becoming a Firewise USA ® community helps homeowners and renters get organized and find direction for their wildfire safety efforts.

Wildfire Mitigation Efforts

As we migrate into spring season at Cascade River Park, and with a drier summer season predicted, there has been a renewed focus on wildfire mitigation efforts to keep our park safe and our shared forest healthy. Below is information and important dates if you’d like to participate.

Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Assessment Visit

The forester will return Monday, March 25, 2024, at 10 a.m. to complete the remainder of the lot assessments and public spaces. Those who wish to have their lots assessed by DNR (with potential cost sharing for qualifying expenses and labor) should fill out the Permission to Enter Property Form and submit to the CRCC office before that date.
