Across California, our crews are actively reducing hazardous fuels through mechanical thinning, prescribed fire, and large-scale pile burning.

Why does it matter? When fuels are reduced, if a fire sparks in a treated area, it burns slower and at a lower intensity.

SERIOUS CLOSE CALL.

Two recent fires broke out just days apart—both traced back to lithium-ion batteries.

These nearly back-to-back garage fires are a reminder that the devices we rely on every day can carry real risk when not used safely.

Blue-gray Gnatcatcher. Sadly, his habitat where I took this photo burned in the Park Fire this year.

What does meaningful oversight of Chico’s $600,000-plus license-plate reader system look like? The council audit raises fresh questions about policy and ICE data sharing. #ButteCounty #NorCalNews #CAPol

A sweet stop at Shubert’s Ice Cream & Candy with Chico Mayor Kasey Reynolds, a fourth-generation owner! Founded by her great-uncle Leonard Shubert in 1938, the family still makes homemade ice cream using an original machine. A delicious Chico tradition! 🍦
