2019 defensible space community workday in the Golden Bear neighborhood, South Lake Tahoe
By residing in the Wildland Urban Interface (the zone where natural environments intersect human development), we take on the extra responsibility of living with wildfire.
However, living with wildfire at Lake Tahoe isn t just an individual journeyâit s a team effort between ourselves, our neighbors, and federal, state, and local agencies. It is a partnership, and we all play a role.
Saturday, May 1 is Wildfire Community Preparedness Day, a national campaign that encourages people and organizations everywhere to come together on a single day to take action to raise awareness and reduce wildfire risks.
