Commissioners authorize fire warden to grant interim exemptions to restrictions
Summary
Alongside the Stage 1 order, the board approved an exception-authorization form allowing the county fire warden to grant limited, interim exemptions during the restriction period; the form was adopted without commissioners' signatures so the warden may act immediately.
The board voted to adopt a fire-restriction exception-authorization form that authorizes the county fire warden to grant limited exemptions during the Stage 1 restriction period. A county staff member outlined that adopting the form would permit exceptions for interim events that occur between commission meetings; the form was adopted without commissioners' signatures so the fire warden can act under its terms.
Commissioners debated the administrative detail briefly and then moved and seconded the motion. The chair put the motion to a voice vote and announced it passed unanimously. The action was described as an administrative delegation to allow timely decisions on narrow, case-by-case events while the restriction is in effect.
