Balancing Fire Safety and a Healthy Forest in the Spencer Butte Area
Our area's forest, open space, and wildlife make this a wonderful place to live. However, these same features put our homes and properties at high fire risk during the dry season. Luckily, making our properties more fire resistant and helping the health of the forest are goals that complement and enhance each other.
Fire risk for the SBNA area includes the wind-blown embers of a distant fire as well as from an approaching wildfire. This risk is reduced when we remove flamable material from around our homes, and it is also reduced as we increase the health of our forest with activities such as planting fire resistant trees. SBNA has put together documents and links to websites to help our members accomplish both of these goals.
