Prepare Your Home for a Wildfire

How it works

North Metro Fire Rescue District’s Plan and Prepare page is a preparedness resource hub. It explains that the best way to protect your family and property during an emergency is to prepare ahead of time, and it points residents to steps and planning resources, including a section specifically on preparing your home for a wildfire.

What the service covers

The page directs homeowners to wildfire home-protection steps and broader emergency planning materials. It also includes general preparedness guidance for all hazards, such as making an emergency action plan, building a go kit, signing up for emergency alerts, following social media updates, and reviewing plans annually.

Planning resources referenced

The page links to the following resources:

• Prepare for all hazards – Ready.gov
• Make your emergency action plan – Ready.gov
• Build your “Go Kit” – Ready.gov
• Business All-Hazard Preparedness Guide – City and County of Broomfield

Timing and deadlines

No deadlines, application windows, or expiration dates are stated. The page encourages residents to review and update their plan annually.

Cost and payment

No rebate, grant, reimbursement, or other direct payment is stated. This is informational preparedness guidance rather than a funded home-hardening program.
