A
Go
all
right.
Welcome
everyone
to
this
teleconference
meeting
of
the
canelo
open
space
conservation
agency,
it's
october,
20th
2020.!
Let
us
we
will
have
a
salute
to
the
flag
in
just
a
moment.
C
D
D
A
Present
very
good,
thank
you.
I
don't
do
we
have
any
public
comments
that
have
come
in.
We
don't
all
right.
We
will
go
right
to
item
4a
approval
appropriation
from
the
woolsey
fire
recovery
fund
for
a
contract
with
central
ventura
county
fire,
safe
council
to
support
community
fire,
safe
programs
staff.
B
Madam
chair
members
of
the
board,
thank
you
for
coming
together
on
short
notice
for
a
special
meeting
to
take
this
item
up.
We
really
appreciate
it
tonight.
Costco
staff
are
recommending
that
the
board
authorize
the
board
secretary
to
actually
a
contract
with
the
central
ventura
county
fire
safe
council
in
an
amount
not
to
exceed
45
808
from
the
woolsey
fire
recovery
fund
for
the
provision
of
community
fire
safety
programs
and
services
in
costco's
sphere
of
influence.
B
Community
fire
safety
is
a
partnership
between
open
space
management
agencies
like
cons
like
koska,
our
local
fire
department
and
our
neighbors.
Achieving
the
highest
level
of
public
safety
happens
when
each
partner
takes
action
to
reduce
fire
threats
and
supports
actions
taken
by
others.
Costco's
open
space
boundaries
connect
with
developed
private
properties
throughout
the
canal
valley.
In
many
of
these
boundary
areas,
costco
performs
brush
management
to
reduce
fire
fuels
adjacent
to
adjoining
neighborhoods.
B
These
defensible
space
buffers
provide
safe
locations
for
firefighters,
to
protect
homes
and
to
keep
flames
and
radiant
heat
far
enough
from
structures
to
prevent
ignition
in
total
425
acres
of
open
spaces
managed
its
defensible
space.
This
program,
however,
is
just
one
contributing
factor
of
achieving
community
fire
safety
actions
taken
by
private
landowners
and
preparations
made
by
the
ventura
county
fire
department
are
also
crucial
to
success.
B
Blowing
embers
some
from
miles
away
are
the
primary
ignition
source
for
most
home
fires
and
most
homes
lost
in
wildfires.
Protecting
a
home
from
members
is
called
home.
Hardening
involves
detailed
work
within
the
30
feet
from
the
structure
footprint,
and
this
area
is
typically
located
on
private
property.
B
Immediately,
following
the
approval
of
the
funding
framework,
costco
staff
reached
out
to
the
community
seeking
partners
for
implementing
programs
that
address
fire
safety
on
neighboring
properties.
The
central
ventura
county
fire,
safe
council,
was
contacted.
His
staff
had
recently
supported
a
grant
application.
The
council
was
submitting
for
community
wildfire
planning,
and
the
council
was
already
producing
high
quality
training
events
to
assist
homeowners
with
home,
hardening
practices
and
programs.
B
B
Their
mission
is
to
reduce
the
threat
of
wildfire
to
farms,
ranches
urban,
neighborhoods
and
infrastructure
through
an
aggressive
program
of
action,
education
and
collaboration,
fire
safe
councils
can
be
found
all
over
california
and
there
are
over
a
hundred
fire
safe
councils
in
the
state.
Having
these
organizations
established
in
local
communities
keeps
fire
safety
planning,
local
and
unique
to
the
community's
needs.
B
B
F
Well,
I
appreciate
it
first
of
all
thanks
a
ton
for
our
for
having
me
this
evening.
I'm
pretty
excited
about
this,
as
I
speak
for
the
board.
We're
all
really
excited
about
this
potential
opportunity
here,
as
ryan
said.
Thank
you
brian,
for
your
report.
Very
well
done
it.
The
fire
state
council
is
really
a
grassroots
organization
started
in
2009.
F
It
includes
members
of
the
agricultural
community
ranchers
and
agricultural
owners,
and.
F
Business
owners,
the
local
community
and
people
very
interested
from
the
general
population
and
fire
safety,
so
that's
sort
of
the
nucleus
of
our
organization,
and
I
think
you
put
it
well
brian,
with
our
sort
of
our
mission
statement
of
training
and
cooperation,
collaboration
and
action.
F
One
of
one
such
action
is
the
chipper
events
that
was
spoken
in
the
proposal.
We've
done
a
number
of
these.
We
probably
do
eight
to
nine
events
a
year
throughout
the
central
ventura
county
area,
anywhere
from
more
park.
We've
done
some
through
the
somas
area.
All
through
the
ventura
area.
We
advertise
them
and
people
can
either
bring
their
materials
to
us,
the
central
location,
and
we
have
a
chipper
and
crew
available
that
we
can
take
those
and
ship
those
and
provide
the
chip,
chip
material
to
a
proper
location
or
we'll.
F
Do
a
curbside
pickup,
we'll
register
with
us
and
we'll
move
through
a
neighborhood
with
the
chipper
in
tote,
and
we
will
collect
the
chips
there.
In
some
cases,
the
property
owners
will
like
them,
redeposited
on
their
properties
for
use
in
their
orchards
or
around
their
homes,
and
we
can
accommodate
that
as
well.
F
So
from
that
action
perspective,
the
chipper
events
have
been
very
pretty
exciting
and
pretty
effective
and
allows
people
to
really
be
more
less
concerned
about
doing
some
of
the
work
they
need
to
do
and
not
having
to
worry
about
the
disposal
of
the
the
branches
and
trimmings.
F
So
that's
the
chipper
event
side
of
what
we
do.
I'm
pretty
excited
about
that.
As
far
as
the
educational
side,
we
really
struck
upon
something
that
we
think
is
pretty
exciting.
We
piloted
this
home
ignition
zone
training
this
year
in
the
ventura
area.
It
had
originally
started
out
as
a
two-day
training
with
the
second
day,
including
an
actual
on-site
visit
of
a
home,
to
actually
look
at
the
home
and
discuss
safety
measures,
and
we
were
fully
prepared
to
do
that
and
had
scheduled
some
of
that
and
then
covered
it.
F
And
so
we
had
to
quickly
restructure
that
into
more
of
an
online
two-session
virtual
class
taught
by
woody
busca,
who
is
included
in
the
proposal
with
our
partnership
with
surefire
and
so
the
two
evening
sessions.
And
then
people
have
to
commit
then
to
attend
on
on-site,
hands-on,
walk
of
the
pro
of
a
property.
F
So
they
can
really
experience
what
it
takes
to
look
at
a
property
and
advise
homeowners.
We
take
all
the
covered
precautions
on
that
particular
day.
We
look
at
the
numbers
of
folks
who
may
have
to
have
two
or
three
groups
come
through
a
property
with
appropriate
physical
distancing
that
has
to
take
place,
and
so
that's
been
pretty
exciting
for
us
again.
It
was
a
pilot
and
it
just
took
off,
and
so
we're
pretty
excited
about
that.
F
We
ended
up
doing
two
of
those
this
year
expect
certainly
more
the
next
year,
and
if
this
proposal
is
accepted,
you
will
be
kind
of
on
the
leading
edge
of
bringing
this
to
other
parts
of
our
community.
Most
importantly,
the
thousand
oaks
and
greater
canal
valley
area,
and
I
think
it
will.
It
certainly
supports
our
collaboration
with
with
costco.
F
As
brian
mentioned,
we
were
awarded
a
grant
to
begin
work
on
a
community
wildfire
protection
plan
for
the
county
in
general,
which
will
then
within
it,
have
the
opportunity
for
smaller
groups
to
develop
community
wildfire
protection
plans
for
their
individual
neighborhoods
and
local
communities
such
as
pyro
and
fillmore,
and
others
we're
targeting
under
served
populations.
If
we
can
english,
as
a
second
language,
population
certainly
was
included,
so
we're
going
to
look
at
including
them
in
that
planning
process,
and
so
that's
kind
of
where
we've
been
in
the
very
recent
past.
F
F
What
we're
doing
as
a
fire
safe
council
pretty
excited
about
it
and
really
really
like
having
this
opportunity
with
you
guys,
so
I'm
willing
to
answer
any
other
questions.
I
hope
that
kind
of
summed
it
up
for
you
and
I'll
be
more
than
happy
to
answer
any
of
the
questions.
A
D
Yes,
I
have
a
question
about
the
program
since
it
started
out
starting
out
as
a
pilot
program.
How
many
homeowners
would
this
particular
grant
be
able
to
cover.
F
F
As
I
kind
of
review
the
proposal,
you
know
we're,
looking
at
probably
50
assessments
we'd
like
to
group
provide
a
cadre
of
inspectors
that
would
conduct
up
to
50
inspections
and
and
frankly,
as
a
pilot
program,
we're
kind
of
doing
our
using
our
best
professional
judgment
on
on
how
many
we
can
actually
accomplish,
so
that
it's
both
of
high
quality
and
sustainable.
F
If
it
indicates
that
we
need
to
have
more,
then
we'll
certainly
be
willing
and
ready
to
do
that
as
resources
to
provide,
but
as
a
minimum,
it
would
be
50
for
this.
First,
this
first
delivery
and
it
seems
pretty
reasonable,
based
on
our
experience
with
the
other
pilots.
We've
done
in
the
ventura
area,
that,
with
the
cautery,
we
might
develop
sort
of
as
a
force
multiplier.
D
The
reason
I'm
asking
is
because
we
have
had
an
interest
quite
an
interest
from
residents
in
our
city
to
to
help
them
with
the
fire
prevention
and
brush
clearance
and
so
forth,
and
it's
more
than
50
residents
more
than
50
homeowners.
I
should
say:
I'm
just
wondering:
are
you
going
to
be
prioritizing
these
residents
according
to
danger?
Because
there
are
areas
that
are
more
say,
perhaps
more
vulnerable
than
other
areas
in
the
city
of
thousand
oaks,
and
so
I'm
just
wondering
how
you
would
handle
that?
D
B
B
So
we
may,
if
you
know,
there'll,
be
other
opportunities
we
could
go
through
to
tv
and
things
like
that
to
try
and
reach
a
lot
of
people
that
maybe
wouldn't
be
in
for
a
physical
thing
right
then,
and
there
I
think
we
could
we'll
use
the
information
that
we
could
develop
through
these
programs.
So
I
think
we
we
have
multiple
ways
of
distributing
this
information
and
the
capacity,
but
we
can
you
know
we.
We
can
look
at
certain
areas
and
try
to
make
those
decisions.
F
F
That
brian
great
job,
I
think
that's
exactly
what
we're
looking
at
is
targeting
where
we
need
to.
He
also
mentioned
the
webinars
that
will
provide
a
larger
grasp
for
a
larger
audience,
acquiring
the
information
and
from
there
will
probably
grow
again.
We
wanted
to
set
a
level
that
was
sustainable
and
of
a
quality
that
we
would
be
able
to
do,
and
I
certainly
expect
it
to
grow.
I
don't
you
know
as
it
grows.
F
We'll
have
a
cadre
of
sort
of
trainers
and
inspectors
through
cert
or
dart
that
can
go
out,
and
then
you
see
50
turn
into
100
and
then
150,
but
I
think
you're
right
claudia.
It
would
have
to
be
a
prioritization
that
will
leave
costco
the
homeowners
association
in
the
city
to
help
us
understand
where
that
has
to
be.
We
would
leave
that
to
you
to
sort
of
best
with
our
council,
maybe
where
that's
best
applied.
D
F
F
We
help
them,
remove
some
flammable
vegetation
below
some
homes
which,
with
now
they
can
begin
to
replant
with
less
volatile
fuel.
So
we
work
in
sometimes
just
to
connect
people
together
to
find
ways
to
lower
a
threat
to
a
neighborhood
such
as
an
hoa
in
an
open
space.
So
we
have
done
some
of
that
coordination.
F
I
think
that's
you
know
we
don't
actually
do
it
ourselves.
I
mean
we're
not
equipped
do
that.
We
will
advise
where
we
think
it's
necessary.
We
certainly
look
back
on
the
county's
hazard
reduction
program
as
the
guidance
for
that
any
other
fuel
modification
would
have
to
be
at
the
whole
property
owner's
request
and
in
good
sense
and
good
common
sense
and
appropriate
for
the
area,
and
we
just
help
them
find
resources
if
they
need.
D
F
D
F
In
my
experience,
properties
that
are
well
maintained
from
the
beginning,
always
fair,
better
properties
that,
where
people
take
the
time
to
look
even
as
something
as
simple
as
ornamental
vegetation
around
their
homes
that
they
think
well,
it's
it's
an
italian
cypress
or
it's
a
palm
tree.
It's
not
part
of
the
a
brush
field,
it's
not
a
pine
tree,
but
we
found
that
those
are
receptive
and
people
just
have
to
recognize
them
and
they
maintain
their
property
as
such,
they
look.
F
It
doesn't
have
to
remove
that
vegetation
by
any
means,
but
just
maintain
it
make
sure
the
under
all
this,
the
litter
on
the
ground
is
removed,
dead
branches
are
removed,
palm
trees
are
properly
maintained
if
they,
if
they
have
them
on
their
property,
the
pine
needles
are
removed
as
necessary.
F
So
I
think
those
pretty
simple
methods
really
help
a
ton
and
then
there's
simple
things
around
the
house,
something
as
simple
as
changing
the
screen
coverings
over
vents
from
maybe
a
quarter
inch
to
an
eighth
inch.
Screening
we
find
is
making
a
big
difference
and
awareness
as
people
approach
the
fire
season,
we're
kind
of
kind
of
in
the
midst
of
ours
now,
but
each
spring
education
brings
awareness
and
people
can
walk
their
homes
and
make
sure
they
take
action.
They
sometimes
things
happen.
F
They
don't
even
recognize
like
a
boat
cover
that
has
leaves
collecting
it.
They
don't
recognize
that
as
a
fire
problem
and
yet
if
we
can
get
to
them
and
just
have
them,
take
a
saturday
to
walk
the
house
and
take
care
of
that
their
level
of
survivability
leaps
and
bounds
increases.
I
mean
this
is
pretty
amazing.
How
much
better
that
is.
You
know
the
embershower
we're
receiving
we're,
seeing
lately
that
sort
of
amber
zone
we're
worried
about.
F
I
won't
say
it's
unique,
but
it
certainly
seems
to
be
enhanced
as
we're
seeing
fires
that
start
a
couple
of
blocks
in
from
the
brush
line,
which
is
maybe
a
palm
tree
or
a
italian
cypress
or
some
other
fuel,
that's
been
found
by
an
ember
and
then
one
house
starts
to
burn.
You
can
see
how
that
will
grow
to
two
and
then
six
and
pretty
soon
whole
neighborhoods
are
are
at
threat
and
never
really
were
close
to
the
brush.
F
D
F
Yeah,
what
we
actually
do
is
refer
back
to,
whether
that
there
are
the
state
fire,
safe
council,
cooperative
extension.
There
are
so
many
good
resources
out
there
that
are
specific
to
california
that
do
a
great
job
in
discussing
alternative
plantings
that
are
fire
resistive,
but
yet
hold
soil
or
very
attractive.
And
we
point
folks
in
those
directions.
We
have
a
full
list
of
those
resources
on
our
website
and
we
provide
those
during
the
training.
F
So
people
would
take
advantage
of
those
well-developed
and
well-defined
lists
that
are
checked
every
year
by
professionals
and
we
just
point
people
in
those
directions
and
say
these
are
your
opportunities
here
and
we
would
encourage
you
to
take
advantage
of
that
with
landscapers
or
your
own.
First
to
replant
your
property.
A
And
I'll
also
mention
again,
the
defensiblespace.org,
which
is
just
recently
launched
excellent,
web-based
guide
that
was
developed
with
a
technical
advisory
committee
at
ventura,
county
la
county
fire
national
park
service,
conservancy,
resource
conservation,
district
and
other
professionals,
and
it
does
have,
as
you
said,
a
list
of
no
no
plant
is
fire
proof,
but
there's
really
good
native
fire
resistant
plants
that
can
be
put
in,
and
it
also
has
information
on
zones
of
the
home,
hardening
aspect
of
moving
vegetation
away
from
your
home
and
structure
out
implementations,
and
I
also
want
to
give
a
big
plug.
A
Fire.
Safe
councils
have
been
really
effective
in
the
santa
monica
mountains
in
malibu
area
tapanga,
and
it
is,
as
you
said,
mike
it's
sort
of
a
on
the
ground.
Individual
homeowner,
homeowner
association.
A
People
get
the
word,
and
if
you
know
one
neighborhood
does
it,
then
it's
like
they
can
become
the
trainers
for
others,
and
it
has
been
super
effective
in
helping
people
recognize
what
they
can
do
to
protect
their
own
home
and
and
be
a
little
more
aware
of
what
can
happen
in
a
wind-driven
event.
E
Thank
you,
madam
chair
mike,
thank
you
for
the
first
of
all
for
your
role
in
this,
because
I
know
it
takes
a
a
professional
to
have
that
type
of
background
to
really
carry
this
type
of
movement
forward.
Appreciate
that
I
love
the
fire.
Safe
council
concept
been
involved
with
it
since
the
early
90s
very
familiar
with
it.
I
love
the
grassroots
concept,
but
also
how
it
blends
with
the
fire
organizations
community
organizations
and
really
makes
it
a
full
teamwork
approach.
E
The
question
I
have
to
you,
both,
as
is
you're
from
being
the
professional
that
you've
been
over
the
years
and
now
in
this
role
as
a
fire
state
council.
My
feeling
is
over
my
years
of
involved
with
this
is
the
homeowners
always
are
looking
out
at
the
open
space
and
the
natural
vegetation
as
where
the
fire
comes.
Is
that's
the
problem
and
it's
not
what's
around
their
house
or
not
even
their
house?
That's
the
problem.
E
So
how
do
you
approach
this
to
kind
of
bring
that
inner
focus
to
say
this
is
how
you
can
protect
your
home
because,
as
as
as
director
bill
de
appendo
is
pointing
out
and
it
also
from
brian,
where
we've
had
these
communities
speaking
up,
saying
hey,
you
know:
what
are
you
koska
going
to
be
doing
more
because
what
the
fire
department
says
isn't
enough,
you
know
you
need
to
be
doing
more,
so
they
continue
to
look
out
at
costco.
E
F
That's
a
very
complex
issue
when
you
have
the
sort
of
the
california
fuel
types
that
cincy
chaparral
that
we
love
to
have
and
it's
beautiful,
but
it
provides
a
bit
of
a
threat
to
us
and
and
our
neighbors
don't
quite
understand
that
the
challenges
it
takes
to
manage
that
fuel
or
to
maintain
the
stewardship
of
it.
I
will
tell
you
that,
certainly
as
a
professional,
there
are
a
full.
C
F
Of
things
that
people
can
do
to
lower
the
fire
risk
to
their
homes
and
also
property
owners
adjacent
to
them,
have
to
consider
when
looking
at
it,
looking
at
that
as
well-
and
I'm
certainly
not
in
a
position
to
maybe
support
any
approach.
F
As
you
are
stewards
of
the
land,
you
have
to
look
at
that
and
how
you
balance:
that
management
of
that
property,
the
protection
of
that
land
and
this
and
its
flora
and
fauna
versus
a
pretty
a
densely
a
built
up,
suburban
and
urban
area
that
I
think
jurisdictions
across
the
state
of
california
and
across
the
west
are
all
wrestling
with
this
very
problem.
F
This
very
question
the
things
that
make
it
enjoyable
to
live
here
from
a
an
aesthetics
point
of
view
and
a
natural
point
of
view
also
provides
some
risks
to
us,
and
people
have
to
understand
they
live
next
to
that
risk.
I
also
would
encourage
the
cause
of
a
board
to
always
consider
what
are
other
options
to
maintain,
maybe
a
safer
environment
next
to
our
neighbors.
F
There's
a
litany
of
things
to
be
done
that
don't
include
removing
vegetation,
and
so
that
would
be
something
that
that
some
people
just
think
automatically
that
if
we
just
remove
the
vegetation
we're
safe,
but
then
you
have
invasive
weeds
that
come
in
behind
it
and
they
provide
a
risk
as
well.
So
it's
a
real
balance
between
the
two.
When
I'm
asked
questions
about
well,
why
don't
they?
I
had
a
just
brief
story
about
we're
doing
weight
abatement.
A
person
was
clearing
their
property,
but
their
insurance
agency
said
well.
F
They
instead
of
a
hundred
feet
to
us
for
us
to
insure
your
property.
You
need
to
go
out
700
feet.
Well,
that's
700
feet
put
it
on
another
person's
property
line
across
their
property,
and
so
we
said
well
as
the
fire
protection
agency
at
the
time.
We
can
only
go
to
that
that
ordinance
driven
100
feet
and
you
have
to
work
with
your
homeowner,
your
neighbor.
I
should
say
to
really
to
work
through
that
problem
of
what
your
insurance
company
is
requiring
of
you.
F
I
think
your
point
is
well
made
as
far
as
the
brush
type
next
to
your
home
is
a
challenge
and
we're
also
finding
that
even
our
neighbors
homes
which
aren't
kept
up
are
a
risk
to
our
home
as
well,
and
we
have
to
look
around
the
neighborhood
in
the
community
as
we
were
talking
about
to
hard
the
whole
community,
because
you
know
embers
will
fly
a
mile.
We
know
that
now
in
these
wind-driven
fires,
with
a
large
column,
build
up
and
just
how?
What
can
you
do
to
change
that?
F
You
know
how
can
you
you
know,
take
away
that
threat,
there's
ways
to
modify
it
and
I
certainly
support
some,
but
those
are
very
complex
discussions
and,
and
they
take
specific
and
scientific
and
surgical
applications
some
places,
but
we
think
that
home
hardening
across
the
board,
hardening
a
home,
a
neighborhood
and
then
a
community
is,
is
pretty.
I
won't
say
it's
low-hanging
fruit,
but
it's
pretty
darn
near.
We
can
really
get
to
that
early
and
often-
and
it's
pretty
straightforward.
So
that's
we're
supporting
this
in
this
proposal.
E
You
know-
and
I
wholeheartedly
agree-
and
I
thank
you
for
that
explanation,
because
I
understand
it
is
very
multifaceted
and
certainly
as
an
open
space
agency,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
doing
our
part,
as
you
mentioned,
as
land
managers,
but
also
from
the
fire
safety
perspective.
We
certainly
you
know,
look
to
the
fire
protection
district
for
guidance
and
direction
as
well
as
enforcement
on
ourselves,
as
well
as
for
our
neighbors,
but
I
think,
and
especially
like
with
the
neighbors
in
west
hills.
E
District
whomever
owns
the
land
will
do
their
part,
but
the
homeowners
have
to
do
their
part
because,
whatever
is
within
the
hundred
feet
of
their
house,
is
the
most
susceptible.
It's
not
what's.
400
feet
across
the
street,
so
I
think
we
need
to
continue
that
emphasis,
and
so
when
you
do
meet
the
homes
homeowners
in
their
backyard,
you
know
that
message
has
to
be
loud
and
clear
that
we're
all
participating,
but
you
know
they
have
to
do
their
part
around
their
home
to
really
make
sure
they're
safe.
B
We've
done
a
lot
of
work
with
the
local
fire
department,
we
interface
with
them
annually
on
these
programs.
You
know
and
trying
to
make
sure
that
there's
access
to
open
space
areas
if
they
need
them
in
firefighting.
Things
like
that.
I
think
costco's
programs
are
enhanced
by
by
a
partnership
with
fire
state
council
to
try
and
get
more
of
this
information
out.
I
think
it's
one
of
those
things
that
like
mike,
was
saying
it's.
You
know
when
it
when
a
neighborhood
can
come
together
and
be
successful,
that
it
models,
valuable
information
for
others.
E
And
I
thank
you
brian.
I
had
just
one
other
follow-up.
If
I
may,
I
don't
want
to
take
up
all
the
time,
but,
as
you
know,
as
the
funder
so
to
speak
is
koska
funding
this
program.
Will
the
people
on
the
ground
whether
that
be
these,
you
know
cert
or
dart
individuals
or
the
fire
safe
council
individuals?
F
B
Go
ahead,
I
would
just
say
the
way
I
well
I
mean
we
see.
This
is
yeah.
It's
a
funding,
partnership,
the
the
expertise
and
the
ability
to
go
to
you
know
the
bandwidth
and
staffing
and
contractors
to
be
ready
to
go
out
and
do
it.
I
think
it's
it's
a
it's
good
to
have
the
fire
state
council
out
front
as
experts
in
the
field.
I
don't
expect
costco
to
be
too
far
behind,
because
we,
you
know
we
are
an
essential
partner
in
this
in
this
community
and
in
this
project.
So
I
anticipate.
B
A
E
But
but
again
because
it's
a
team
approach
and
in
many
different
facets-
and
I
do
think
it's
important
to
have
a
fire
safe
council
moving
forward
with
that
banner,
and
it
just
so
happens
that
yokosuka
is
behind
it,
supporting
it
and
again,
I'm
also
thinking
as
the
west
state
hills,
people
that
that
they
don't
want
to
think
that
koska
is
turning
around
and
saying,
hey!
Look!
You!
Homeowners
are
the
problem.
It's
not
koska
because
we're
moving
this
forward,
but
instead
we're
supporting
it
as
a
team
and
community
effort.
F
I
think,
speaking
for
my
board,
we
would
not
want
to
be
the
sole
banner
waivers
in
this.
It
really
is
a
cooperative
effort,
and
I
think
even
the
proposal
listed
a
number
of
folks
that
are
involved
in
this.
Besides
the
fire
state
council,
you've
got
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
that
that
has
shown
some
interest
in
it
as
well.
We've
talked
to
their
staff
the
certain
dark
programs,
both
within
the
sheriff
and
with
the
city.
F
All
those
are
partners,
and
so
I
think
instead
of
saying
well,
we
don't
want
to
be
sort
of
up
front.
I
think
we
need
to
be
demonstrating
a
partnership
as
equals,
potentially
as
a
funder
as
an
apple,
the
one
that's
applying
the
skill
set
and
the
others
that
are
helping
us
get
it
done.
So,
however,
we
sort
of
portray
that
I
think
a
partnership
is
number
one,
and
we
would
support
that
as
a
board
to
really
be
a
collaborative
partnership
to
show
that
as
a
neighborhood,
you
come
together.
F
I
think
these
same.
These
community
agencies
as
well
should
come
together,
and
we
would
demonstrate
that
I
think
we've.
E
C
C
I
should
never
assume
I
know,
but
since
you're
proposing
a
forty
five
thousand
dollar
contract
with
the
with
the
council,
the
programs
that
are
mentioned
in
in
the
discussion,
the
home
initiative,
home
ignition
zone
assessments
and
the
chipper
events.
These
would
be
free
to
the
public.
B
C
You
know,
and
you've
touched
a
little
bit
on
this
brian,
but
getting
word
out
to
our
community
that
this
is
available.
You
know
you
you've
mentioned
putting
it
on
t.o
tv
and
maybe
some
other
places,
but
you
know
that
depends
on
people
going
to
to
tv
or
wherever
else
they
might
go
to
get
this
information.
C
B
B
We
have
contact
information,
for
instance,
for
all
the
hoas,
and
we
can
look
strategically
at
reaching
out.
I
mean
this
is
really
for
the
entire
community,
but
you
know
we're
also
looking
you
know
at
our
neighbors.
You
know
these.
Are
you
know
these
community
areas
are
our
neighbors
and
we
want
to
work
with
them,
and
so
some
direct
outreach
will
definitely
be
part
of
this.
