Mandatory Burn Ban Issued for the City of McDonough

MCDONOUGH, Ga.– Effective immediately, the City of McDonough Fire Department is issuing a mandatory burn ban for all city residents and businesses.

This follows a countywide ban issued today, April 23, by the Henry County Office of the Fire Marshal and Fire Prevention Bureau.

Increased wildfire activity across south and central Georgia, combined with local dry weather and shifting winds, has created a high-risk environment where fires can ignite and spread with dangerous speed.

Under this mandatory ban, no outdoor burning of any kind is allowed within the city limits. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Fire pits
• Bonfires
• Burning of yard debris
• Agricultural burning
• Prescribed burning

Please be extremely cautious with anything that could create a spark.

The McDonough Fire Department urges all residents to strictly adhere to these restrictions. Even small, attended fires can quickly escape control under current conditions.

Residents are also reminded that the annual Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) seasonal burn ban is scheduled to begin on May 1, 2026, and will remain in effect through Sept. 30. This state-mandated ban further restricts the burning of yard debris and land-clearing materials to protect air quality during the summer months.

The current emergency ban will remain in place until further notice.

This week, we recognize National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week. It was our honor to provide lunch and dinner to our incredible dispatchers as a small token of appreciation for the critical work they do every day. Before help ever arrives, it’s their steady voice and rapid decision-making that sets everything in motion. We are proud to stand behind such an exceptional team.
