Bill -- Garden in shade zone 5 S Jersey USA I'm of the opinion that where people build homes, they need to allow for natural burning and consequential wind when maintaining a fire break as well. A small footprint of land for this is not feasible, the owner has to have a large enough plot to do this. Hillside acreage, its even more important. And, I'm of the opinion its the homeowner's responsibility to maintain such a firebreak, not the local or state government in the case of a fire approaching said property. -- Dave |
