I was very pleased that 1) you decided to do an article on the wildfire improvements and 2) you did a great job showing us the sprinkler system around the buildings and wild areas. It has been a worry since the Almeda fire, and knowing all the work that has been done to protect the RVM property eases my mind.
I am still very concerned about fire hazards such as overgrown trees or shrubery too close to the cottages which could catch an ember and start a fire within the cottage areas. I have three pine trees outside my windows which are definitely too close to the cottage, but I have been told they won’t take them down. They have pruned the upper branches to give us a little view, but the overhanging branches that cover the walkway are still too close. It might be a good idea to have the Manor administrators and the landscaping people learn about “defensible space” and the need for cleared area around buildings! Even the fire department said having the trees so close was not a problem. My husband and I worked with the Stanislaus Natl. Forest with the Firesafe program and have been fully aware of the need for defensible space, not only in the forest but in the cities as well. I’m not a fan of “It won’t happen to me!”
