§ 10-84.010. Adoption of the local responsibility area fire hazard severity zones map.¶
The city of Laguna Hills hereby adopts the fire hazard severity zones as designated by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. These zones, identified as moderate, high, and very high, are shown on the official map titled “City of Laguna Hills – Fire Hazard Severity Zones (2025),” which is incorporated by reference. A copy of the map shall be maintained on file with the City Clerk and made available to the public.

§ 10-84.020. Multiple designations.¶
In the event that a parcel is subject to more than one fire hazard severity zone on the fire hazard severity zones map, the more strict designation shall apply to the entire parcel. In order to effectively administer fire protection within the border areas between differing fire hazard severity zones, it is necessary that, when a parcel is subject to more than one fire hazard severity zone on a single lot, the requirements that apply to the more strict designation on that parcel shall be administered and enforced for the entire lot.
