We do not have a fire department. We have a number of full timers who have basic wildfire fighting training.
The village was laid out with no cabin more than 1000ft from a forestry hydrant. That is a lot of hose lay to get to some cabins.
Access to the hydrants is not always consistently maintained in the winter.
The wildfire folks have had issues with the water utility regarding who is authorized to charge a hydrant. I don't know where that is at. The wapiti hydrants are different than the strata hydrants.
Homeowners do not know what the hose inventory is, and how to access it.
