| CHIPPER DAYS COMPLETE FOR 2009 |
UPDATE 10/26/09:
San Bernardino County Fire Crews have completed the FREE Chipping Service for the entire east end of Big Bear Valley. Residents and homeowners are encouraged to continue with their defensible space efforts. Debris can be taken to the local dump site; do not pile debris at curbside until next year's dates have been established. The information below will be updated in early Spring of 2010. Many thanks to the overwhelming response, with over 200 tons chipped for 1632 parcels!
Homeowners and residents are eager to clean-up their yards and work on creating that defensible space. Once again, the Big Bear City Fire Department and San Bernardino County Fire Department are teaming up to provide FREE Chipper Days to the residents within the Big Bear City Fire Department jurisdiction. The following schedule has been set.
June 29, 2009 – Sugarloaf
July 13, 2009 – Big Bear City (Includes North Shore, Shay Area, South Big Bear City, Erwin Lake, Lake Williams, and Meadowbrook Estates)
August 3, 2009 - Moonridge

Chipper Crews will begin visiting these neighborhoods on the date listed. YOU DO NOT NEED TO CALL IN FOR CHIPPER SERVICE! If chipper debris is not out by this date, you will have to haul your debris to the dump site. Fire crews will be hanging door tags and signs in the very near future for residents to see and review. In the meantime, please do not put debris out too early, creating a different type of fire hazard in the front of your residence.
Chief Willis states “I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone that participated in the effort to make your property more fire resistive, thereby contributing to neighborhood fire safety efforts. Through the combined efforts of Big Bear Valley Fire agencies, and all the hard work brought forward by you the property owner we are proving to be a mountain community that others can look at and admire.”
While there is still much work remaining, and the fire agencies of Big Bear Valley are committed to continuing programs that contribute to the individual success of creating defensible space one property at a time.
Together we can make a difference as we look forward in future years in pursuit of an established firewise community. |
