About two weeks ago Bruce Short and Richard Diedrich plus several other people walked and drove around the subdivision for Fire Mitigation purposes.  Prior to that time a copy of the Fire Mitigation Plan for Pine River Ranches Subdivision was mailed to all landowners.  A draft of a more comprehensive plan was emailed to the Board Members for their review prior to tonight’s meeting.  This plan will be made available on the website once all attachments have been received.  Bruce Short gave an overview of the plan.  Board members were able to ask questions during this time.  The first area of concern for the Board to consider will be the common areas and alongside the roads.  There is grant money available for this through the Firewise Council.  The grants are due in two to three weeks and Richard Diedrich, the subdivision’s representative to that council, will contact them for more information.  The grant will be a 60 – 40 % split with the Subdivision paying the 40% of the estimated cost of $4000.00 which equals $1600.00.  The Fire Mitigation Plan will be presented at the 2012 Annual Meeting.
