FIRE COUNCIL ORGANIZATION MEETING SET

Laguna Beach: Eight years ago this month, Laguna Beach caught on fire. In the decade following the devastation, new construction, plantings and time have erased the fire's visible scars. Unfortunately, the possibility of another devastating fire still exists. To help in the protection of the local region from future disaster, the Greater Laguna Coast Fire Safe Council is being organized. The new council, which has received a grant from the Federal Bureau of Land Management, seeks founding members to develop fire-protection task objectives.  Interested citizens from Laguna Beach and nearby communities are invited to attend a meeting at the Laguna Beach City Hall on October 27 at 10:00 am.  These “Founding Members” will develop activities to keep residents informed about fire dangers, and promote fire mitigation measures. The new Laguna Coast Council is one of over one hundred such community-centered Fire Safe Councils across California.
