Landowner: To add a landowner, e.g. CWPP community, city, fire protection district or county information, start by first searching the landowner database (click ‘ADD LANDOWNER’) or creating a new landowner record (click ‘CREATE LANDOWNER’). Update landowner information as needed.
To avoid duplicate entries, be sure to search the landowner database prior to creating a new landowner and avoid using abbreviations.
Example: “Durango Fire Protection District” should not be entered as “Durango FPD”.
Note: a new landowner record can be created beforehand using the ‘Landowner’ tab in Planner.
To create a new landowner record, the following information is required:
First Name: Enter the name of the community, city, fire protection district, or county in the ‘First name’ box. The ‘Last Name’ box should be left blank for CWPP plans.

The ‘Ownership’ box will auto-populate based on the selected ‘Manager’.
Address: Enter the address that is most relevant to the CWPP.
No individual landowner information should be entered for CWPPs.
