OUR MISSION...

The Mission of the San Mateo County FIRE SAFE Program is to maintain the quality of life and property for the citizens living in the wildland urban intermix zones of San Mateo County. Working together, we can achieve effective fire protection education and planning. The Key elements of the Mission are to reduce hazardous vegetation, the creation of defensible space around structures, and the education of citizens regarding fire hazards and fire behavior through the guidance of local agencies.
