Defensible Space Chipping - Lower Riviera

Defensible Space Chipping for the Lower Riviera chip area starts Monday, June 3rd, for homeowners who are within the Wildland Fire Suppression Assessment District. If you are a resident of this chip area, please remember to have your piles out by the date posted. If you have any questions about our Chipping Program, the Wildland Fire Suppression Assessment District, or you would like to schedule a Voluntary Defensible Space Inspection, please contact Chris Braden with the Santa Barbara City Fire Department at 564-5737.

The Lower Riviera chip area will be the final chipping area for this years annual chipping program in the Wildland Fire Suppression Assessment District. A huge thanks to all of the homeowners for ensuring that your piles were out on time and free of non-chippable material. This year we will have successfully chipped over 300 tons of material and recycled 100% of the produced chips!
