Wondering what you can do to prepare your property for bushfires?
Being prepared is the key to making good decisions during an emergency.
Fire season has begun, and we’ve received a lot of great questions about what you can do to prepare your property. To answer these questions, Council has prepared resources to assist with emergency preparedness for yourself, your children, business, pets, property, and others here on our readiness webpage.
You can also download a copy of our Preparing for Fire Danger Season brochure that outlines the responsibilities of Council and residents and explains where you can find more information.
Every step you take towards preparedness, no matter how small, contributes to the safety and well-being of everyone. Every step helps everyone.
