Sheriff Darren Weekly rescinded Stage 1 fire restrictions for Castle Pines, Larkspur and unincorporated Douglas County on Sept. 17. Castle Pines relayed the decision in an official notice that day.
The announcement said the sheriff considered fuel conditions, weather and forecasts before ending the restrictions. It also urged residents to keep taking precautions with fires, outdoor equipment and discarded smoking materials.
Fire restrictions can change as conditions change. This report documents the September decision and should not be treated as confirmation of the restrictions in effect on a later date.
