  1. Hello I was wondering if there is still a fund of $250 for help in preventing fires getting to close to my home. we live on Dillard rd in-between 2 very large forest that no-one takes care of. our 1/2 acre sits in the middle of 2 residents that do not care about how we are stuck in between there overgrown underbrush and broken trees; its a mess and has become a definite fire hazard for us.. They refuse to cut any trees back away from our property which fell on to our property in the ice storm. and has caused bears and blackberries to take us over. we have tried to keep up but it has gotten so bad we are about to give up. We live on NorthEast Side on the top of dillard By Ridgeline trail head Dillard West.
