Wildfire Evacuation Drill May 21; Community Meeting May 4
There will be a Wildland Fire Evacuation Exercise in Ken-Caryl Valley and the North Ranch on Saturday, May 21 to simulate a real-life emergency and test evacuation procedures. The exercise will begin at 8 a.m., and the voluntary evacuation will start at 9 a.m. There will be a community meeting on Wednesday, May 4 at 7 p.m. at Chatfield Senior High to discuss the evacuation exercise and allow residents to ask questions. Some area schools have graduation May 21, but please know that no roads will be closed and residents will have complete access to the area. The only difference is an increase in law enforcement and fire apparatus traffic in the area, which should end by 2 p.m. Residents of the area will receive an evacuation notice via telephone. Residents who have signed up for CodeRed will also receive notification via smartphone. If you haven’t signed up for emergency notifications through CodeRed, please sign up at www.your911.net.
