Fireworks Restricted in Elk Ridge City
Due to extremely dry conditions and increased fire danger, all fireworks are prohibited within Elk Ridge City for both the July 4th and July 24th holidays.
Recent fires in our area have demonstrated how quickly a spark can turn into a fast-moving wildfire. Our priority is protecting our residents, homes, open spaces, and first responders. By restricting fireworks during these high-risk conditions, we can help prevent unnecessary fires and keep our community safe.
If you plan to celebrate in neighboring communities, please be aware that other cities may also have restrictions in place. Payson, Salem, and Woodland Hills have restricted fireworks in all or portions of their cities. Be sure to check and follow local regulations before using fireworks outside of Elk Ridge.
We appreciate your cooperation and commitment to fire safety. Let's work together to ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable holiday season.
When in doubt, leave fireworks out.
Have a safe Fourth of July and Pioneer Day from the Elk Ridge Fire Department!
