The City of Flagstaff has lifted all fire restrictions within city limits, effective immediately.

The restrictions were put in place early this spring due safety concerns over the coronavirus pandemic and the overlapping high fire danger season. City officials say, while the restrictions have been lifted, visitors and residents are asked to use caution while using fire sources, including barbecues, charcoal and propane stores. No open burning is allowed within Flagstaff city limits. Additionally, fire danger has been lowered in the city from Very High to High. Residents are encouraged to consider Firewise practices around homes and offices.
