This project includes vegetation management adjacent to roads to enhance ingress and egress of emergency vehicles and residents during a wildfire emergency along evacuation routes and other roadways in several communities of West Marin. Vegetation management activities will target invasive vegetation, dead and down woody debris, and other fire hazardous vegetation while seeking to retain and encourage healthy native plant communities within 10 feet of the road edges and 15 feet above roadways, as required by County Fire Code. This project includes collaboration with several communities in West Marin who will contribute funding or labor. Many of the communities within the project area are registered Firewise communities. CEQA compliance for this project is complete and a permit through the Marin County Local Coastal Program has been acquired.
