Open fire ban through October 1, 2016

Please open this post for important information.

Effective immediately and in effect through October 1st, fireworks, explosive devices and open fires are prohibited within Park City limits.

The Park City Council recently enacted a new Ordinance, 2016-36. This ordinance consolidates the authority to restrict open sources of ignition and fireworks with the City Fire Code Official based on the ever-changing hazardous environmental conditions. On July 22, 2016, the Park City Fire Code Official enacted a ban on all open fires, sources of ignition, and fireworks due to the current conditions of hot temperatures, high winds, low humidity and dry vegetation—all of which significantly increase the risk of wildfire and directly threaten the safety of our community.
