| Property owners reminded to meet exterior hazard and fuel break requirements |
| By Jennifer Wake |
| The official start of fire season begins June 1, and the Moraga-Orinda Fire District is reminding property owners about the need to adhere to Moraga-Orinda Ordinances 23.03 and 23.04 by focusing on fire abatement strategies in the three zones surrounding homes.
Zone 0 extends from 0 to 5 feet from any structure, attached deck, or outbuilding on the parcel and requires the most stringent wildfire fuel reduction. Zone 1, referred to as the Lean, Clean, and Green Zone, extends from 5 feet to 30 feet from any structure or attached deck, or from 5 feet from the structure ...read |

Inclusion should include all opinions
A headline in the May 10, 2023 Lamorinda Weekly exposes the hypocrisy of DEI: "As Lafayette School District works to amplify inclusion efforts, outside community members stage weekly protests." It is not completely clear what "outside community members" means. What does "outside" mean: "outside" of what? And what is the "community": is it just Lafayette? Lamorinda?
The headline implies that people outside the community are staging protests and are not welcome. One of the saddest lessons I have learned over the last 6-12 months is that our "community" is not just very woke, but also very closed-minded.? We saw complaints about "outsiders" during the Lafayette school board election last fall, even though all of the candidates were required to live, and did in fact live, in the district.
I do not understand how anyone can claim Lamorinda supports "inclusion" when in fact only certain viewpoints are included, and now outsiders (who live in Lamorinda but perhaps not Lafayette) are also not included.
