Members back Firewise media push and small demonstration lots to promote mitigation
Summary
Committee members proposed a media campaign and small demonstration lots to publicize Angel Fire's new Firewise designation and encourage mitigation; members suggested a flyer, outreach to TV and digital outlets and low-cost signage and agreed to draft a plan for council review.
Committee members proposed using Angel Fire's new Firewise designation to launch a media and outreach campaign, including a short promotional flyer, TV or digital features and small demonstration lots near public locations to show defensible-space and home-hardening examples. Mike said the Firewise designation creates a publicity opportunity and urged proactive outreach: "Remember, Angel Fire is a Firewise community."
Staff cautioned the group to prioritize achievable items and coordinate with the village manager, communications staff and Firewise USA for logos and approvals. The committee agreed to task Mike with drafting a flyer and to present a draft at the next committee meeting for possible elevation to council for final approval.
