The Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) Draft is ready for review.
Please provide feedback by September 22, 2024. You can scroll on the feedback form below or open the form in a new tab.
The Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) was inspired by the creation of the Healthy Forest Restoration Act (HFRA) in 2003. The Act enabled Federal land management agencies to forego the creation of environmental assessments and impact statement for fire mitigation in and around communities near federal land. Colorado Senate Bill 09‐001 directed the establishment of guidelines and criteria for the preparation of a CWPP to address wildfires in the fire hazard areas within the unincorporated portions of the County. Updating the CWPP parallel with other critical planning documents allows for the most up-to-date data and analytics to be incorporated across the board, when appropriate, while planning for land use decisions and considerations for community wildfire risk. The scope of the CWPP will cover all of unincorporated and incorporated Jefferson County, including all jurisdictions and special districts.
