The Ventura Fire Department, in partnership with the Ventura Regional Fire Safe Council, has drafted its first Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) and invites residents, business owners, and community stakeholders to help shape the final plan through public workshops and an online questionnaire.
The draft Community Wildfire Protection Plan focuses on two primary goals: identifying and prioritizing local fuel reduction efforts and recommending actions that reduce the risk of homes and structures igniting during a wildfire.
Community members are invited to attend one of two public workshops to learn more about the draft plan and provide input:
- Wednesday, February 18, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. in the Community Meeting Room, City Hall, located at 501 Poli Street. Live Spanish interpretation will be provided at this workshop.
- Thursday, February 26, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. at the Ventura Fire Department Headquarters, located at 1425 Dowell Drive
In addition to the workshops, the Ventura Fire Department encourages participation in the CWPP Questionnaire, a short feedback form available in both English and Spanish. Designed to take less than five minutes, the questionnaire allows participants to share their views on wildfire risk, prevention priorities, and actions the community can take to reduce risk.
The questionnaire is open through Friday, February 27, 2026, and feedback gathered through both the workshops and online will help inform revisions before the plan moves forward in the adoption process.
