Eagle Creek Fire - How to get notified of changes in evacuation levels

MCSO is constantly assessing the situation surrounding the Eagle Creek Fire evacuations within our county. In collaboration with fire officials, we will determine when it is safe to start allowing residents to move back into certain locations.

Deputies, Search and Rescue members, and Citizen Patrol volunteers collected contact information from residents as they were being evacuated from Level 3 areas. We will utilize that information to communicate to residents when evacuation levels have been downgraded or lifted.

We recommend that community members take additional steps to ensure they receive any updates regarding changing evacuation levels:
