Northstar Fire Defensible Space

Area real estate agents were recently notified that the Northstar Community Service District (NCSD) has adopted Fire Ordinance No. 26-09, requiring that sellers in the NCSD service area provide buyers with information regarding defensible space of the property they are selling.

Basically, there is a standing requirement to create and maintain defensible space for the properties in the Northstar area.  And, the NCSD Board of Directors voted on October 21, 2009 that the seller of property in the area must disclose the status of defensible space to the buyer prior to close of escrow.  This approved Defensible Space Ordinance revision formally takes effect 30 days post-approval.

There is a “Defensible Space Pamphlet” available through the Northstar Fire Protection District. To comply with this mandate, the Sellers and Buyers of any real property in Northstar are to sign the detachable portion of the pamphlet, which formally acknowledges that they have received this information, and return it (by mail or in person) to the Northstar Fire Department prior to the close of escrow.
