Welcome to Oshara Village Fire Awareness. This page serves as a resource for homeowners and Oshara residents. We invite all Oshara Village residents to review the content and resources provided. We live in an area that is surrounded by natural landscape including grassland, shrub and trees. To prevent and mitigate any fire we have created these guidelines and resources. It is important to note that Oshara Village is located in the Santa Fe County and not within Santa Fe City limits, so fire responders will come from the county fire departments. The closest fire station is La Cienega Regional Fire Station #37.
