FireSmart Homeowner Incentive Program
The FireSmart Homeowner Incentive Program encourages homeowners to sign up for a FireSmart Home Assessment, and to conduct recommended FireSmart practices to mitigate wildfire risks on their property.
- Only Town of Whitecourt homeowners that have had a current FireSmart Home Assessment completed by the Whitecourt Fire Department (as of 2022) and have completed eligible FireSmart activities on their private property as recommended in the assessment will be eligible for funding.
- Properties located in areas of higher wildfire risk, such as those adjacent to the forested edge of Centennial Park, will be prioritized for funding.
- By completing recommended work and submitting an application, you are not guaranteed funding. Applications will be reviewed on a case by case basis.
- The Whitecourt Fire Department will accept, review and allocate funding per program guidelines.
