2024 Fire Department Update
Homeowner insurance premiums are increasing. Hear what the Newport Beach Fire Department is doing to keep your rates down!
With the recent surge in casualty losses caused by wildfires, insurance companies are responding by raising premiums or, in many cases, canceling policies altogether.
Join us for an insightful session and learn best practices in wildfire preparedness, home hardening, and recommendations to maintain wildfire insurance. Guest Speakers Fire Marshal James Gillespie, CERT Coordinator David Gibson, and Battalion Training Chief Brian McDonough from the Newport Beach Fire Department will also provide practical tips on fire prevention, emergency readiness, and the importance of wildfire preparedness.
Additionally, they will share firsthand experiences from the front lines of the recent Airport and Park fires, giving valuable insights into fire response efforts and lessons learned.
This program will also feature "Parcel Level Mitigation for Homeowners," offering expert advice on how to protect our properties, loved ones, and communities from the threat of wildfires.
