Need Notice and Education
If the power will be shut down in response to predicted high winds, and this will happen 5-10 times per year then we really need to have clear notice of power shutoffs and reasonable expectations of power return. Our neighborhood got about 2 hours notice and was mostly word of mouth and power was out for 60 hours. Nearly everyone in our neighborhood supports the shut down to avoid fire. Our ranch burned in the Marshall Fire destroying everything of our families livelihood, our home, our barn and all the animals burned to death. We really don't want that to happen to anyone. We support power shutoff to prevent fire. However, there needs to be clear notice (email/call/radio/text) so that everyone knows what will happen, and as much advance notice as possible. Other fire victims in CA say that the system works better over there with power shut downs and people are more educated/prepared. Can we work to educate and prepare the CO people?
