What is a HEARTSafe Community?
Our HEARTSafe Community program is a set of criteria and guidelines designed to improve outcomes to sudden cardiac arrest emergencies through a specific set of training, preparation and response protocols.
This criteria supports the cardiac arrest “chain of survival” and encourages communities to put that chain of survival into action. Activities include:
· Widespread CPR instruction
· Public access defibrillators
· Aggressive resuscitation protocols for first responders and area hospitals
Communities that strive to become “heart safe” must meet the criteria established by the Citizen CPR Foundation. Upon completion, they receive signage and official recognition as a HEARTSafe Community to demonstrate a commitment to citizen health and safety.

The District provides all public meeting notices on the Districts webpage and in compliance with ORS 192.640 (1)(2)(3).
Per Paragraph 1 we will provide those notices to interested persons including the news media which have requested them.
We just want to make everybody aware that there will be some large slash burns visible to the public happening soon.
The First one is going to be between Sears and Bryson-Sears Roads just south of Molitor Hill Road.
