Dunn County adopts temporary burn restriction after emergency declaration
Summary
County commissioners accepted a burn restriction for Dunn County based on an emergency declaration; staff published guidance to the county website for residents.
The Dunn County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved a temporary burn restriction after staff presented an emergency declaration and recommended formalization.
Sarah (county emergency staff) told the commission she had filed a burn restriction declaration and updated the county website with guidance for residents. Commissioner Olsen moved to accept the burn restriction; Commissioner Pelton seconded and the motion passed on voice vote with no recorded opposition.
Why it matters: burn restrictions limit open burning to reduce wildfire risk during dry conditions and give residents a public guidance source for permitted activities.
Ending: Staff said the county website will carry current information and that the restriction will remain until staff recommend rescission.
