The Board of the Alta Sierra Property Owners Association (ASPOA) recently decided to join with the Fire Safe Council of Nevada County to urge residents to remove the non native, very flammable plant called Scotch Broom. This invasive plant presents an unnecessary fire hazard for our community and will spread if not eradicated. The Board would like to poll the community to determine if any of the ASPOA members need assistance in removing Scotch Broom from their property.
If you need help with Scotch Broom removal, please go to the ASPOA web page: www.aspoa.org/contact/ and fill out the contact form, or send an email to webmaster1@aspoa.org. Include your name, phone number, address and a description of the amount of Scotch Broom to be eradicated. You may also call 271-0766.
