What is the Tahoe Fire Adapted Community? A fire adapted community is a community consisting of informed and prepared citizens collaboratively planning and taking action to safely coexist with wildland fire. Fire adapted communities reduce the potential for loss of human life and injury, minimizing damage to homes and infrastructure, and reduce firefighting costs by taking the necessary steps to prepare properties and people before a wildfire occurs.
