Committee Annual Reports – Firewise, Website Available

Committees drive our community.  Communication of committee results improves community transparency.  During the recent annual meeting several members expressed interest in committee annual reports.  Specifically, posting annual reports on the committee website pages for all members to review.  The following reports are now posted for member review.  The intent is to provide a quick, one page report of accomplishments over the past year.

Questions or comments on the reports?  Let the committee chairs know what you think.  

Stay safe and well.
