Council updates wildfire response, water-tank status and Forest Service meeting
Summary
Council reported ongoing firefighting support, a Forest Service public meeting scheduled for the next night, and encouraged voluntary short-term water conservation because town tanks were not at full capacity.
Council described continued support for firefighters working a nearby fire and said the Forest Service has scheduled a public meeting in this building the following night to answer questions. "There is a public meeting tomorrow night in this building upstairs... it’ll be under the direction of forest service and the county commissioners," the chair said, inviting residents to attend.
Members discussed the community’s water tanks and whether they were at capacity; staff said the tanks were not full but were at levels the city was comfortable with and recommended voluntary reductions in nonessential water use (e.g., lawn watering) to preserve fire flow capability. The council thanked residents and private donors who have provided snacks and hydration to crews and noted mutual-aid arrangements remain active.
