The County Judge has rescinded the burn ban. Please keep in mind that even though we have received a good rain, a wildland fire can still ignite and spread. Please ensure you follow all guidelines and if in the ESD 8 district a permit is required. Thank you

The prevention division now has a way for anonymous complaints regarding fire code violations or dangerous conditions. Go to our permit website at nebcpermits.com then select report a code violation and fill out the information. This notifies the Fire Marshal. The prevention division will then investigate the situation and take preventative measures as necessary. Have a great Labor day Weekend.

There is some haze and ash coming from a fire on FT Hood, with the wind shift from the North it is pushing it into our area.
