Recovery Project 13:

Set One Standard For Fire-Resistant Homes

Benefits to Community

  1. Reduces Wildfire Damage: Establishing a uniform fire-resistant building standard lowers the risk of homes being lost to wildfires.

  2. Simplifies Home Hardening: A single, clear standard helps residents understand and implement fire-resistant construction measures more easily.

  3. Enhances Community Safety: Widespread adoption of fire-resistant building practices improves overall community resilience to wildfires.

Project Status

The Regional Long-Term Recovery Plan is now complete, and the Jackson County Community Long Term Recovery Group (JCC LTRG) has convened partners and identified project leads. These leads are now beginning the critical work of implementing recovery initiatives to support our community's rebuilding and resilience efforts.
