Thinking of stay at home projects?
Have you looked at the FIRE SMART website lately to check how you can prepare your property for wildfire season? You can get some exercise while you move your woodpile.

Or how about checking your driveway to clear overhead and side encroaching branches?
Access requirements are a minimum of 12 feet wide and 15 feet vertical clearance from all obstacles. Driveways must be capable of supporting a load of 5000Kg per axle in all weather.
Your property MUST be posted with your correct lot number clearly visible from both directions of approach from the public road where your driveway intersects. If you have two entrances, both must be posted. Numbers must be 6” in height and visible day and night.
If you are interested in purchasing a numbered sign post that meets the specifications, you can contact info@aggressivefiresafety.com,
You will see many examples of this white sign post with reflective blue numbering on many driveways here on Thetis.
