County of Ventura Supervisor Jeff Gorell — Wildfire and Emergency Preparedness presentations — Are you ready?

GET WILDFIRE READY-

YOU’RE INVITED TO ATTEND A DISTRICT 2

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS MEETING

Dear Neighbors,

I want to personally invite you to attend one of the Wildfire and Emergency Preparedness presentations I am offering across District 2. I have worked closely with the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office of Emergency Services (OES) and the Ventura County Fire Department to make sure these valuable presentations are available to the public — because when it comes to protecting our families and homes, preparedness truly saves lives.

These community presentations will cover key topics like wildfire risks in our area, how to create defensible space around your home, evacuation planning, emergency alerts, and other practical steps you can take now to be ready.

I am thankful to have Fire and Sheriff Emergency Service experts available to offer four opportunities for you to attend this same presentation, held at Municipal Advisory Council (MAC) meetings throughout District 2 on the following dates:
