Fire-hazard designation & local ordinance

FHSZ: Very High (point-check basis)

Running Springs is designated Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, confirmed via a direct point-in-polygon query against CAL FIRE's official hazard-zone data. This is a point-check basis; state that plainly rather than presenting it as a full community survey, since this rests on point verification rather than a published map image reviewed for the whole community.

SRA/LRA: SRA. Statewide SRA maps became effective April 1, 2024, set by the state.

County adoption context

San Bernardino County Fire Protection District adopted its 2025 LRA map via Ordinance No. 4489 (June 10, 2025). This county-level adoption is noted for context; the SRA designation for Running Springs itself is set at the state level and effective by statute.
