On Saturday, August 5, the City of Boulder hosted an open house to increase public awareness and seek public input about the upcoming Community Wildfire Protection Plan. Over 40 residents attended and were able to talk to a variety of subject matter experts about resilient landscapes, fire adapted communities, and safe and effective fire response. Conversations included forest management, grassland and ditch management, emergency alert and warning systems, emergency response, and mental health resiliency. Handouts were provided at all the tables, as well as opportunities to learn about the risk of wildfire and provide feedback regarding what recommendations and projects residents would support moving forward.
