Explore with Gore, Episode 3: Chief Turbeville, NorSoCo Fire

Could another major wildfire happen in Sonoma County—and are we more prepared today than we were in 2017? In this episode of Explore with Gore, Supervisor James Gore sits down with Marshall Turbeville to discuss how wildfire risk has changed across northern Sonoma County and what communities are doing to prepare for the future. The conversation explores lessons learned from the 2017, Kincade, Walbridge, and Glass fires, along with the major changes made to evacuation planning, emergency coordination, and fire response systems over the past decade. They also discuss the growing role of vegetation management and prescribed fire in reducing fuel loads and creating healthier, more resilient landscapes. From defensible space and community preparedness to regional collaboration and long-term fire resilience, this episode looks at how Sonoma County is adapting to a new era of wildfire—and what residents can do to stay prepared.
