Rogue Valley fires

This week we had a favorable outcome with the fires we had in part because we still have a fire tanker base, thanks to Jack Walker our County Commissioner who fought to keep it here. Another factor that helped save homes especially in Ashland was the fact that home owners had prepared fire fuel breaks around their homes before the fire. A special thanks is in order for Fire District No. 5, who worked with the home owners to get this done. The only home that was lost did not have a fuel break done.
