What applies to my property today?
Existing California defensible-space law and applicable local fire-authority rules still apply. LAFD is the local authority named on this guide; verify the parcel before treating a statewide proposal as binding.
What should I do while the statewide rule is proposed?
Use the first five feet as a prevention checklist: reduce combustible storage and dead material, review fence-to-structure connections, and consider ember-resistant home-hardening upgrades.
