The River Place HOA Firewise Committee provides awareness regarding natural and man-made wildfire risk in our community.  Resident volunteers are trained by the Austin Fire Department to perform FREE home advisements for neighbors wanting to find ways to make their home/property more resistant to fire.  Please see “Structural Ignition Zone Advice” link shown below.   For concerns regarding dead or downed trees and overgrown vegetation in preserve lands adjacent to your property, please see “Wildfire Fuels Reduction Permit information link shown below.

The Firewise USA Designation is a program created by the National Fire Protection Association with the intention of teaching people, “How to adapt to living with wildfire and encourages neighbors to work together and take action NOW to prevent losses.” Home insurance premium reductions of up to 5% are possible with some insurance companies.
