Is your home or cabin accessible for emergency vehicles?  The following are needed for the GHAVFD to gain access to you in case of an emergency.

• The width of your driveway should be a minimum of 9 feet, with 10 feet recommended.
• Turning radius should be greater than 16 feet.
• Culverts and bridges must be capable of holding 20 tons (for fire truck loaded with water).
• A sign with the property address should be at the driveway entrance and should be visible at night or day.  Names are not sufficient.
• Locked gates or chains will prevent access.
• There should be 14 feet overhead clearance.
