Fire Danger is now
High
Welcome To Our Site...
Our priorities for this site are:
- Letting everybody know who to call in case of a
fire sighting. 911 is the preferred number to call for fire and other emergencies.
- Getting Burn Regulations posted. Every year people wonder
when they have to start obtaining burn permits and what the regulations
actually are in terms of what can and can't be burned.
- Timely information from Fire
Chief Jon Delvalle will be found on the "Chief's Notes" page.
Jon will let us know what's happening locally in regard to protecting the
lives and property of us residents from fire.
Jon can also provide us with his vision of where he'd like to see our Fire
Protection
District in the next few years.
- Letting you know who your commissioners are. These are the
folks who represent you at their monthly meetings and you should feel free
to contact them with your concerns.
- Helping
you to prepare for the inevitable WILDFIRE!
This
area has burned and will burn again. It's just a
matter of time. The negative
impacts that spring from wildfire can be horrendous...but they can often
be mitigated.
Intelligent building site planning and follow-up maintenance (e.g. Defensible
Space) can help reduce the potential damage and destruction to personal
property and help save lives. Check out the web site links that we'll be
posting on
this site to "learn not to burn".

Burn
permits are required starting May 10 this year. They are good through
June 30. After that, burning is prohibited until the Fall rains
arrive.
If you have any questions about these policies, please contact
Chief Delvalle by clicking on the "Contact Us" button at the left
side of this page. You may also view the Boise County ordinance directly by clicking the link below.
Thanks!
My thanks to Evans Valley Fire District #6 for
their contribution of web site "building blocks". Thanks also to
Chief Jon Devalle and my fellow commissioners for their suggestions regarding
this
site.
