Burn Permits
County and city ordinance requires citizens to obtain a burn permit before burning any trash, weeds, etc. The permit doesn't cost anything, but you will be fined a minimum of $200 if you have an illegal burn, i.e. one that you did not get a permit for. Simply call (435) 932-0234; this number will reach one of the four duty officers. They will discuss with you what you plan to burn and what conrols you have to prevent the spread of the fire. Items not approved for burning include tires, rubber, plastic, insulation, and construction debris. The burn season begins April 15 this year and goes until the end of May. Burns are not allowed on Sundays nor if the burn index or air quality numbers are outside the approved parameters. You will be assigned a permit number. All fires must be out by sundown; someone must be present while the fire is active.
