Sheriff Pelle orders outdoor fire ban for Boulder County
Mar 23rd
Boulder County, Colo. – Sheriff Joe Pelle has enacted a ban on open burning and the discharge of fireworks in unincorporated Boulder County. This specifically includes all areas east of the Peak-to-Peak Highway (State Highway 72).
The ban will remain in effect until the hazardous fire conditions subside. Advisory signs will be posted on roadways throughout the county by the end of this week.
The fire ban allows for liquid or gas fuel stoves and fireplaces in buildings. It bans all other open fires and the use of any kind of fireworks.
“Although the high winds will die down the forecast does not call for significant moisture, and continued breezy warm conditions will keep fire danger high,” Pelle said. “Firefighting resources are stretched thin and we need to do everything we can to prevent additional fires.”
Anyone found in violation of the fire ban may be convicted of a class 2 petty offense and may be subject to a $500 fine. Higher fines may be imposed for subsequent offenses.

Boulder Collects Donations For Japanese Sister City
Mar 22nd
refugees. It is working with the UN Habitat and Japan Habitat Association to raise funds for
victims of the earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan earlier this month.
The largest earthquake in recorded history to hit Japan triggered a tsunami with 23-foot waves
and more than 50 aftershocks that devastated cities and villages along a 1,300-mile coastline.
Victims are taking refuge in Boulder’s Sister City of Yamagata, which is dealing with the fallout
of two natural disasters and currently facing the potential meltdown of nuclear power plants
about 200 miles outside of Yamagata.
Refugees need daily living essentials such as food, water, diapers, powdered milk and clothing.
The Friendship Committee is working with friends in Yamagata to coordinate delivery of
supplies and offer comfort to those people who have been displaced by earthquake, tsunami and now from nuclear crisis.
Boulder-Yamagata City Friendship Committee is soliciting financial contributions and is
working with Yamagata Bank, Yamagata, Japan, to distribute funds to the UN Habitat and Japan
Habitat Association. Questions and donations may be directed to Yoko Tamaki Brandt, Boulder-
Yamagata City Friendship Committee, 901 Utica Ave., Boulder, CO 80304. For more
information on how to make a donation, please call 303-447-3117 or
e-mail.
Yamagata, Japan has been a sister city of Boulder since 1994.
