Mitigation Measure 4.12-5a: During periods of high fire danger or during red flag conditions, operation of equipment with small motors for vegetation/landscape maintenance shall be prohibited. All mechanical equipment shall have approved spark arrestors and comply with California Public Resources Code(PRC) Sections 4431,4435,4442 and 4437 to limit potential for ignition of incidental fires. Mitigation Measure 4.12-5b: The project sponsor shall prepare a Fire Safety Awareness Program to address fire safe behaviors and fuel management. The project would include the disclosure of the Program's requirements as part of the CC&Rs for the project development. Alternatively, in consultation with the City,the proposed project could include the formation of an Open Space Maintenance District to ensure the implementation of routine maintenance measures for fire protection purposes. Mitigation Measure 4.12-5c: The project sponsor shall incorporate design measures and implement fuel management measures listed in the Wildland Urban Interface Plan(WUIP is included as Appendix E). Vegetation management measures included in this Plan shall continue to be implemented according to the CC&Rs for the proposed residences, and/or an Open Space Maintenance District. This Plan presents measures to: make structures less ignition-prone; make vegetation burn with less intensity; educate and prepare residents regarding wildland fire; properly manage fuels on private lots and in the periphery of the open space; and ensure that fuel management inspections are conducted annually. The City shall review and update the WUIP every five years to ensure that it reflects any updates to the City's Fire and Building Codes.
