A Stage 2 Burn Ban g

A Stage 2 Burn Ban goes into effect tomorrow, August 17, until further notice for Unincorporated Pierce County.

The Stage 2 Burn Ban change is due to worsening dry conditions, ongoing drought, and increased wildfire risk across the region. It will stay in effect until conditions improve.

What’s changed from the Burn Ban issued in June?
🚫 No outdoor burning at all – including any outdoor/recreational burn pits, backyard fire pits, or backyard fireplaces.
🚫 Burn permits are still suspended – and will remain so until all burn bans are lifted.

What is allowed?
✅ Charcoal in grills and gas grills/heaters are allowed if they are on a non-combustible surface.

Sometimes, the best moments happen between calls. ❤️

While responding to a call, our firefighters spotted a neighbor who was excited to see the fire engine. They took a moment to stop, say hi, and give her a closer look at the engine.

It may have only taken a few minutes, but those little moments can make a big impression.

We’re always happy to make a new friend along the way!

Two weeks left to share your perspective.

Our Fire District Identity Survey closes on August 27. If you haven’t participated yet, we want to hear from you.

The Board of Fire Commissioners is gathering feedback from community members, employees, and community partners about the future public identity of our merged fire district, including its name and logo.

The survey is intended to help inform the Board’s decision-making process and is not a popular vote. Whether you support keeping the current identity, updating the logo, or adopting a new name and logo, we encourage you to share your perspective.

Take the survey by August 27: www.surveymonkey.com/r/CentralPierceFire
