The Culver City Fire Marshal has informed certain Culver Crest homeowners that their properties are to be designated as being in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (VHFHSZ). The Fire Marshall is working on developing a local ordinance to present to City Council for adoption next month.
Portion of Culver Crest (in red) to be designated Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (VHFHSZ)
Briefly, homes designated as such will:
- Need to meet state brush clearance requirements
- Need to comply with specific CA “Ignition Resistant Construction” building codes
- Require their owners to disclose the VHFHSZ status when transferring ownership.
If you have any questions, please contact the Culver City Fire Prevention Bureau at 310/253-5925.
