Hello Alterra Residents,

The Board would like to convey an important message to the community regarding the recently updated fire risk maps for Chino Hills and the deadline (4/30/25) to providing feedback to the Chino Valley Fire District. Please refer to the information below:

CAL-FIRE’s new Fire Hazard Severity Zone (FHSZ) maps have determined that over 24,000 acres in Chino Hills are at wildfire risk, with 20,000+ acres in the “very high risk” & “high risk” categories. This will likely affect Alterra property values and our ability to keep or acquire homeowner’s insurance. Residents in these zones must create defensible space and follow stricter building codes. Sellers must disclose fire hazard ratings, and homeowners may need to make fire-resistant upgrades for insurance. Chino Valley Fire encourages community members to review the updated map at https://chinovalleyfire.org/fire-hazard-severity-zone-map and provide feedback by APRIL 30TH via email to FHSZMap@chofire.org. The fire district cannot change the designation made by the State Fire Marshal, but we can express our comments, questions, and concerns.

Dear Alterra Owners,

We would like to inform you of the current tree removal taking place in the community. Approved tree removals began today and will continue until Friday, March 28th, 2025. For details regarding the specific locations of tree removals, please refer to the attached map document. The document includes a legend and marked areas for the types of trees scheduled for removal, such as California Pepper, Eucalyptus, and Pine trees.

Important Notes:

• Please avoid parking near trees marked for removal to ensure the safety of your vehicle and the efficiency of the crews.
• Temporary road closures or access restrictions may be required in certain areas during working hours.
• We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we work to maintain our community’s beauty and safety.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to management at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your understanding and support!
