Programs & Initiatives
We are thrilled to be able to offer the following programs throughout Routt County. Each of these offerings have enjoyed a great deal of success and impact in other areas throughout Colorado and beyond. We’ve examined the architecture, then considered our local specific needs and engaged a variety of partners to help bring them to life.
Programs

ROUTT RESIDENT REBATES
Our rebate program for all Routt County residents – homeowners and renters alike. If you’re considering one of these key mitigation items, a financial boost may be available:
- Non-combustible fencing
- Vent screening or replacement
- Hardening Zone 1 in your Home Ignition Zone

Firewise USA®
This is a great starting line for communities who are collectively engaged in wildfire mitigation activities, or who are just coming together. It’s a nationally recognized program developed by the National Fire Protection Association. If you’ve already dug in on the wildfire problem, understood the vulnerabilities and what it takes to minimize them, then thrown your hands up in the air and said, “it’s too much!,” this program can help.

Home Ignition Zone Evaluations
It’s been proven through controlled experiments and in actual wildfires that there are impactful actions homeowners and property managers can take to harden buildings and modify landscaping to resist ignition. Our home ignition zone report provides you with recommendations to guide your mitigation action plan.
