Road Clearance: Our annual vegetation road clearance program was a great success this year. Just over 14 miles were treated.
Thank you to all of the homeowners involved for your patients while we perform our work. We appreciate your support of this wildland fire safety project. If you have a road that needs to be address please contact us for consideration.
 
The purpose of vegetation road clearance is to reduce the amount of vegetation along roadways, enhance evacuation during a wildfire, and allow greater access for fire engines and equipment to respond during a wildfire. It is very important to maintain and keep up the work that has been completed. Maintaining roadways is not only important for your safety but the safety of the community. Santa Barbara Municipal Code requires homeowners to make sure that vegetation on their property does not encroach onto adjacent roadways. This effort includes keeping evacuation routes clear of flammable vegetation and thinning vegetation along the roadways. In years past we have been able to recycle 97% of the chipped material and accomplished the same this year.
