Exciting News!! GREENBELT CLEANUP IS STARTING SPRING 2021!! 


As you may have heard the GRF POA approved funding to help all our residents meet the 100' of defensible space around their property. Example - If your home is 50' from the greenbelt you are responsible for that 50' and the POA will be cleaning up the remaining 50'.  For more information go to https://goldridge.org/sub-division-map and scroll down for the latest updates about which greenbelts are next.

The Fire Safe Council is a separate entity form the POA. For questions and more information, please call (707) 888-9331 or email  GoldRidgeForestFSC@yahoo.com


Our mission is to make our community fire safe through roadside vegetation management, greenbelt clearing,  through Grant funding, special programs for our residents and volunteer services.  We are also here to educate and  encourage our neighbors to contribute by clearing their own defensible space and making sure they have evacuation plans that will work best for them. It is this council's promise to seek grant funding in order to complete the above and more. 


If you have any questions or need assistance with the chipping program form or the defensible space ordinance inspections coming this summer, feel free to email GoldRidgeForestFSC@yahoo.com or call (707) 888-9331.
