Zone Zero Requirements in Sweetwater Park

Sweetwater Park has its own fire authority (Chula Vista Fire Department) and does not inherit unincorporated San Diego County's 2023 Zone 0 rule. As of September 19, 2026 there is no statewide Zone 0 regulation in force in California. Keeping the first five feet around your home clear of combustibles is still the strongest, most practical prevention step you can take.
