Wildfire Mitigation!

Zilker Wildfire Mitigation Requests

ZNA is asking Zilker residents to focus on the following four actions:

• Prepare your “go bag" with important papers, medicines, and travel items so you're ready to leave quickly in case of emergency.
• Look at your own home and make it as safe as possible.
  Request a free SIZE evaluation from ZNA   
  We aim to fulfill requests with Zilker residents who are AFD-trained advisors.
• Talk to your friends and neighbors about risks and actions we can take to be proactive.
• Work with ZNA on policy issues that include evacuation, land management, and urban planning that prioritizes disaster recovery.
