FireSmart™

You are eligible for support services if the following applies to you:

• Own a home or property in a PRRD rural electoral area
• Over 65 years of age, OR;
• Have limited mobility or other concerns, such as being a member of vulnerable population, which prevents you from completing FireSmart activities yourself

To receive these supports, book a FireSmart Home Ignition Zone Consultation through the contact form below or by calling (250) 467-4180.

Once a consultation has been completed, we will prioritize properties based on the level of risk at each property. We want to make sure that residents with the highest risk are served first.

Be sure to book your consultation today as spots are limited and our team will evaluate eligibility on an on-going basis.

Our team will work with you to help FireSmart your property by providing services such as:

• Removing or pruning evergreen trees, cutting grass, removing dead wood debris or flammable shrubs within 30m of the home
• Removing vegetative debris from roofs, gutters and under decks
• Removing combustible debris, materials, fences or plants from within 1.5m of the home
• Moving woodpiles, building materials or other combustibles to a location more than 10 meters from the home
