Arapahoe County Upgrades to Stage 2 Burn Ban

Published on July 17, 2024

Due to the heightened fire risk, a fire ban is now in effect. Arapahoe County, including Centennial, has upgraded to a Stage 2 Fire Ban, effective immediately. Stage 2 means no outdoor fires, including, but not limited to, campfires, fires in constructed, permanent fire pits or fire grates within developed camp and picnic grounds and recreation sites; charcoal-fueled fires, warming fires, fires in outdoor wood-burning stoves (chimney sparks or embers); and the prescribed burning of fence lines, fence rows, fields, farmlands, range lands, wild lands, trash, and debris.

Violation of these fire restrictions is punishable by up to a $1K fine. The Stage 2 Burn Ban will stay in effect until further notice.
