Chaffee Chips events resumed; chipping, mitigation site visits increase
Summary
JT Shaver reported the May Chaffee Chips event at Mountain View subdivision had strong turnout and that the county will run two more chipping events this fall; staff are averaging three to five home‑hardening site visits per week.
JT Shaver told the group the first Chaffee Chips event in May (at the Mountain View subdivision, site of a fire more than a year ago) had good participation and that "I think Chaffee Fire got it knocked out in, 2 days." He said two additional Chaffee Chips events are planned for this fall and that chipping and home‑hardening outreach remain busy.
JT also said staff are averaging roughly three to five mitigation site visits per week and that chipping support was provided for Maysville's Firewise Day. He framed the increased activity as responsive to current smoke and homeowner requests for defensible‑space assistance.
