Please note the regions listed in the tables refer to Tasmania Fire Service regional boundaries.
These communities have been selected using an evidence-based approach:
- A list of communities was prepared with input from the State Fire Management Council based on the bushfire risk across Tasmania
- This list was then compared to a list of existing and future Tasmania Fire Service Community Bushfire Protection Planning priorities
- Consultation has also taken place with Tasmania Fire Service Regional Chiefs and District Staff to determine communities
- Other criteria includes community connectedness, TFS capacity and consultation with communities.
The Bushfire-Ready Neighbourhoods program is working with a number of other Tasmanian communities on a case by case basis and this depends on the Community Development Teams capacity.
For more information about how communities are selected for the program and if your community can become involved please contact your regional Community Development Officer.
