Community Identified Risks and Hazards There are numerous wildfire hazards and risks within Lake County. The following tables show the hazards and risks identified throughout the ten planning areas, plus Lake Pillsbury. They are shown graphically on the maps in Appendix B2 as “Risks/Hazards”. Figure 1. Identified Risks and Hazards: Transportation System Issues Many of the risks and hazards associated with roads and bridges are in regards to road and bridge quality, gates, and road blockages.

Community-Identified Potential Projects1 As discussed in Chapter 2, a series of meetings were held throughout the county where community members were given the opportunity to identify their top priority fire-safety projects. Residents were asked to brainstorm and think “outside the box,” beyond issues of ownerships or regulations. This was done so community members would not restrict their thinking to what they thought was possible, which could be quite subjective. Some of these prioritized projects may not be realistic given today’s political and regulatory climate. However, they are important to review in terms of community priorities given the opportunity to put everything on the table and “think big.” The following table identifies the top-ranking priorities
