"Napa County is no stranger to the devastating consequences of wildfire. The Napa County Wildfire Preparedness, Watershed Protection and Open Space Preservation Act is a smart plan. It provides dedicated, locally controlled funding to better prepare local communities for wildfire, while also ensuring increased access and efficient management of natural open spaces. It has my vote."
– Congressman Mike Thompson
"I’ve lived in Napa County my entire life, and the need for reliable, dedicated wildfire, open space and water quality funding has never been greater. Our communities must be prepared for the next wildfire, we must be responsible stewards of our public lands, and we must ensure the long-term sustainability of our watersheds. The proposed Napa County Wildfire Preparedness, Watershed Protection and Open Space Preservation Act will do just that. I am proud to support it.”
– Supervisor Anne Cottrell
“As someone whose extended family has lost their homes in three wildfires since 2017, and having volunteered in evacuation centers, I know firsthand the shock and heartbreak experienced by those affected by these fires.
Wildfires do not discriminate-they threaten every resident, regardless of where we live. In my role as a former Napa City Council Member and now as your County Supervisor – with most of my district right here in the City of Napa – I see our shared vulnerability every day.
Let's stand together as a community and vote 'Yes' on this ballot initiative to protect our land, our community, and our homes.”
– Supervisor Liz Alessio
“Our local economy depends on the safety and beauty of the land and environment that surrounds us. Wildfires threaten our businesses, our visitors and the agricultural heritage that makes this region so special. The Napa County Wildfire Preparedness, Watershed Protection and Open Space Preservation Act is a smart, locally controlled investment that protects what makes Calistoga — and all of Napa County — worth visiting, worth living in and worth doing business in. We urge the Calistoga business community and all Napa County residents to vote yes.”
– Calistoga Chamber of Commerce
“Healthy watersheds benefit every community in Napa County: clean drinking water, resilient ecosystems, public open spaces. When wildfires burn through unprotected open space, our creeks, rivers, and reservoirs pay the price – carrying ash, sediment and pollutants that threaten the water, the ecosystems, and the wildlands that we treasure and depend on. This initiative provides the dedicated funding we need to protect and enhance the open space watersheds that keep our water clean, our rivers and streams healthy, and our communities resilient. We are proud to support it.”
– Friends of the Napa River
“The Progressive Women of Napa Valley proudly endorses the Napa County Wildfire Preparedness, Watershed Protection and Open Space Preservation measure. We believe that this measure will make a significant difference in the quality of life for all Napa County residents by making our families and homes safer from wildfires, protecting our drinking water and providing open space for all residents to enjoy. We appreciate that the funds raised by this initiative will stay local and that there is a detailed expenditure plan that directs the spending.”
– Progressive Women of Napa Valley
