Wildfire drill in Mansons tonight! (July 29th)
The Cortes Fire Department will be conducting a large scale structural protection drill in Mansons Landing from 7pm to 9pm this evening.
This will create minor delays for traffic in the area, as we will have supply lines run from Hague Lake up Austin drive, Charlotte Rd, and across Sutil Pt Rd for a portion of the drill, and will be controlling traffic in the area.
Please drive carefully in the area and follow directions from the traffic crew.
We apologize in advance for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we conduct this important exercise to prepare for the possibility of major wildfire in our community.
