Same rules, different towns

Every town here except Placerville is outside city limits. That means the county's fire rule, Chapter 8.09, and the county's oak rules apply in most of them. The 100-foot defensible space rule is the same everywhere on this page.

What changes from town to town is the ground. Lotus sits at 722 feet. Pollock Pines sits at 3,980. That's a big jump in snow, trees and fire risk over a short drive.

Your town not here? Give us a ring anyhow. When a town's too far, you'll hear it straight and point you somewhere that can.
