Community Wildfire Protection Plan
Steep terrain, large areas of continuous fuels and frequent high fire danger weather conditions make wildfire a significant concern in Jefferson County, Colorado. Both general and specific actions are needed to mitigate wildfire risk and improve ecosystem health. Learn more about the Community Wildfire Protection Plan, which identifies wildland fire issues facing the community and outlines prioritized mitigation actions.

Senior Fire Safety
The Golden Fire Department wants the senior citizens in Golden to remain active in our community and continue to lead independent lives. The goal of this program is to assist in that process. We will provide a courtesy safety survey of your home, provide a File of Life and information on its use, make certain your smoke alarms work properly and help you keep your home safe from hazards. We also provide group programs on general home safety for seniors.
