flag Snowmass Village gets $850,000 to reduce wildfire risk to its water supply and improve safety.

flag Snowmass Village has received an $850,000 grant to boost wildfire resilience in its remote, wilderness-protected water supply region. flag The funding, part of Colorado’s Natural Disaster Mitigation Enterprise, will support science-driven projects starting in 2026 to reduce fire risk, improve evacuation routes, and protect critical water infrastructure. flag Advanced modeling by Dr. Hussam Mahmoud identifies high-risk corridors, guiding targeted fuel reduction in steep, densely vegetated areas. flag The project complements ongoing efforts to address water quality issues and post-fire hazards like debris flows. flag It aims to enhance community safety, firefighter effectiveness, and recovery speed, building on the town’s annual $100,000 fire prevention investment.
