Stage 1 Fire Restrictions enacted

Remember that water flows downhill! Protect your property by building at a higher elevation and grading the site to direct drainage away from your building. You may be able to elevate the structure itself if building at a high elevation isn't possible.



Don't forget to obtain a permit before digging or making major modifications to your property. Learn more about floodplain management standards in Mesa County.
