The Lake County Fire Mitigation Office offers landowners the opportunity to apply for State and Federal funding for the purpose of treating forested land to reduce the damage done from a catastrophic wildfire. Mitigation efforts may include such treatment as thinning of timber, pruning, and slash disposal. Recommendations can also be made regarding Home Ignition Zone areas (the 100 ft area surrounding the structure). If you feel you live in a high-risk area and would like more information, please contact us. For more information about living with fire click on the links.
