Casa Conejo MAC members push Firewise certification and neighborhood wildfire steps
Summary
Councilmember Brendon Garcia reported progress toward Firewise certification for Casa Conejo and proposed inviting a Firewise representative to outline resident actions; members also discussed neighborhood watch and other community safety measures.
Councilmember Brendon Garcia urged an ongoing commitment to a Firewise program for Casa Conejo, saying the application commits residents and the community to measures intended to reduce wildfire risk. Garcia proposed placing a Firewise representative on a future agenda to present specific actions residents can take.
A local resident present expressed interest in starting a neighborhood watch program, and Garcia suggested forming a road maintenance committee to coordinate local safety work. The Council agreed to include Firewise and neighborhood safety as priorities when assigning members to sub‑committees for 2025.
The discussion was part of the larger sub‑committee agenda and will be tracked as an item for future meetings where staff or outside representatives may be invited to present implementation steps.
