    Red Flag Warning
    Posted on: October 5, 2020

    The National Weather Service has issued a Red Flag Warning for Adams County for Monday, Oct. 5, in effect from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.  A Red Flag Warning automatically places Adams County at Level 2 Fire Restrictions. No open burning is allowed until further notice. Those having burn permits issued by the Fire Chief CANNOT burn during Level 2.

    A Red Flag Warning means that critical fire weather conditions are either occurring now or will shortly. A combination of strong winds, low relative humidity, and warm temperatures can contribute to extreme fire behavior.

    Important Notice on Permit Review Times

    The Community & Economic Development Department Building Safety Division is currently not able to meet the expected review time of 10 days. Please be patient as we do what we can to process building permits as quickly as possible. We are in the process of recruiting for a recently vacated Plans Examiner position as well as working to secure additional resources to assist with reviewing building permit plans. We anticipate this delay in review times will continue through the end of the year.

    Our Mission: To responsibly serve the Adams County community with integrity and innovation.
