SHARED VISION THROUGH INCLUSIVE, MULTI-BENEFIT REGIONAL PLANNING
Develop, Collect and Analyze Data at a Variety of Spatial Scales to Inform Priority Projects/Actions
Sherwood Firewise: Creating Defensible Space on Vacant Parcels - TA for GIS/Mapping

  • Engage with Regional Partners to Inform High Quality Planning and Implementation
  • Ensure that Disadvantaged and Underrepresented Communities Benefit from Initiatives
  • Respect Local Autonomy and Local Knowledge in NCRP Planning and Implementation
  • Work across Jurisdictional Boundaries to Achieve Common Objectives Effectively and Efficiently

NCRP RFFC Technical Assistance (DOC)
Completed
TA is requested to create GIS maps with parcel data layers, including property owner data, creating defensible space maps for needed treatment, and conducting outreach to property owners requesting voluntary compliance. We need GIS mapping and integration of an online database to design a process that SFC volunteers can follow to monitor and track parcel data, landowner contacts and access permissions, scheduling, home hardening inspections, chipper days programs, and roadside fuel reduction projects. Training is needed so SFC volunteers can use and maintain the systems for long-term maintenance and monitoring of defensible space.

General Information

Project Description Narrative (1,000 character limit)
The Brooktrails subdivision is considered by fire agencies to be one of the highest risk areas in the state. In addition to being a "one way in and out" community, the subdivision has 1500 homes completely interspersed into the 4500 vacant lots and 2500 acres of forested greenbelt. Due to a building moratorium most of the vacant lots cannot be developed, so many property owners are unresponsive to legal notices requiring them to abate vegetation on the property. TA is requested to create GIS maps with parcel data layers, including property owner data, creating defensible space maps for needed treatment, and conducting outreach to property owners requesting voluntary compliance.
