The City of White Salmon is going to send out letters to some homeowners advising them they need to make changes in order for firefighters to be able to protect their property in the event of a wildfire. The move came out of Monday’s City Council goal-setting session. Mayor David Poucher says fire officials have identified some homes where currently firefighters might not be able to safely offer protection during a wildfire, but they can be made safe. In some cases the problem is dead end roads without sufficient turn arounds for fire equipment, and in others it’s ladder fuels on private roads. Poucher emphasized letters will be sent to those properties that have been identified, adding this is mainly about wildland fire protection rather than home fires.
