This is an example thread asking for an assessment.
**Example title**
The post could have been titled: “'Michel’s wildfire assessment request.”
**Example text post**
"I am wondering about what I need to do in order to comply with the new Berkeley fire code. I live in the Frizzly Peak Mitigation Area. I have a large yard with a number of redwoods in the back. In the front, I have a mostly native garden.
Can you give me some advice?"
