Evacuating portions of the county or local jurisdiction may be required in the event of an emergency. Evacuations protect life by keeping people clear of hazardous conditions. The evacuation zones are based upon topographic, infrastructure, threat, and census data. If an evacuation is ordered, officials will reference the evacuation zone name in the public messaging. Go to the Current Emergencies map and type in your address to find your zone.

• Don’t wait. If you feel unsafe, evacuate.
• Evacuate early to avoid heavy traffic.
• If you are instructed to leave, do so.
• Continue to follow public notifications and local media for the latest evacuation information.
• Throughout fire season maintain at least a ½ tank of gas, keep entertainment items for children in the car, and supplies for pets ready to go.
