The Southern Marin Fire Protection District has made the reduction of flammable vegetation surrounding our communities one of its top priorities. As part of this ongoing commitment, the District’s comprehensive Vegetation Management Program is coming to your neighborhood with two key objectives: to reduce wildfire fuel and to improve emergency vehicle access, especially on narrow, winding roads.

Thanks to your continued support, the Southern Marin Fire District has removed over 10,000 tons of flammable vegetation from the City of Mill Valley and throughout the District's service area. These efforts have not only enhanced emergency response capabilities but have also helped reduce power outages during winter storms.

The focus of the Vegetation Management Program in your neighborhood includes:

• Pruning trees to maintain 15 ft vertical clearance for emergency vehicle access.

• Removing flammable and other combustible growth or encroaching vegetation, within 10 ft of the road edge, for improved roadside clearance.

• Clearing and maintaining access to and around fire hydrants.

Please do not pile any vegetation on the roadside for pick up. This project is for street clearing only.

The following streets are scheduled for vegetation maintenance starting on or around January 19, 2026:
