A Message from the Grant County Board of County Commissioners

With the extreme heat and dry conditions, we are urging everyone to exercise extreme caution with campfires, fireworks, safety chains on towed vehicles, and other possible ignition sources.

Also, please use firearms responsibly, do not use exploding targets and only use firearms at designated shooting ranges. We have great concern for your safety and want to protect our county’s homes, farms, businesses, and landscape. 
 
Grant County code allows for an emergency ban on the sale and discharge of fireworks. We have reached out to the local fire districts and as of Tuesday, June 29 we are not implementing a ban. If conditions worsen (fires, wind, depleted firefighters) a ban on the discharge of fireworks will likely happen.

We strongly recommend holding fireworks until New Year’s. If fireworks are displayed, please be mindful of dry tinder and keep water handy. We don’t want a “privilege” to lead to the loss of someone’s home or property.
