Lake County
Landscape Wildfire Resilience Prioritization Plan

Developing a pipeline of multiple years of implementation-ready projects available for funding consideration.
CLERC is developing a Regional Prioritization Plan that identifies and prioritizes projects at the landscape level to address forest health and wildfire risks within Lake County. CLERC's goal for this plan is to develop a framework for streamlining future community-wide projects and funding proposals through better monitoring and prioritization.
