Residents can visit https://www.cityofgrassvalley.com/post/fire-hazard-severity-zones-2025 to view the interactive maps and find their property’s fire hazard severity zone rating. The community is encouraged to review the maps and provide comments at Council meetings in March or through the City website. It is crucial to note that local agencies may only increase the level of fire hazard severity as identified by the OSFM. They are prohibited from decreasing the severity level in any designated area.
