Bayside Acres held its first wildfire evacuation drill, followed by a Zoom debrief on July 23, 2022. The drill began with an AlertMarin notification to 400+ residents in our subdivision. A big thank you to both Woody Baker-Cohn, assistant emergency services manager and Hannah Tarling in the Office of Emergency Services in the Marin County Sheriff’s Office for issuing an AlertMarin to test our readiness.

The accompanying slides (below) include information on our evacuation zone, evacuation status levels, “Evacuation Tags” and alternative routes out of Bayview, Main and Manzanita. The accompanying “presenter notes” also provides useful background and information.
