6/9/26: Please be advised of the recent amendment to the Stage 2 Fire Ban - still active in Teller County, including Woodland Park.
This morning, representatives of the Teller County Sheriffโs Office met with the Board of County Commissioners about amending the Stage II Fire Ban Resolution to allow the use of propane fire pits in addition to the devices that are already allowed. As a result, the update, Resolution 06-9-2026 (21), approved and in effect June 9, 2026, reads as follows:
โThis Resolution does not restrict use of the following, provided that each is at lease 10 feet away from combustible walls or roofs, or other combustible materials and have the ability to be turned off at the fuel source and do not leave any residual or lingering fire: Gas, liquid or propane fire pits, barbecues, stoves, and lanterns. Pellet Stoves and Grills.
โAll other Stage II Fire Ban restrictions remain in place.โ
As always, please use your propane fire pits and other fire-producing devices in a responsible manner.
The updated guide is attached, reflecting this change.
