 Daniela DE MARTINO (Monbulk) (12:56): With summer fast approaching, now is the time to connect with your local CFA and get your property fire ready, especially for newer residents to the hills and foothills. If we learned anything from the Montrose fires back in March, it is to have a fire plan in place, make sure your go bags are ready and ensure you have the VicEmergency app on your phone and understand what the different alert levels mean. Throughout October local CFAs have hosted Get Fire Ready open days for anyone to drop by and learn how to prepare their properties and get those fire plans ready. If you have missed one, contact your local brigade and they will be more than happy to help.
