30-Day Burn Ban in Effect

Bucks County Issues 30-Day Burn Ban Amid Dry Conditions

In response to prolonged dry weather, Bucks County has implemented a 30-day burn ban effective October 27. The temporary measure, passed by the Bucks County Board of Commissioners, aims to reduce fire risk across the region, where dry conditions have raised wildfire concerns. The ban prohibits open burning to protect residents, property, and natural resources.

Doylestown residents should note that while the county ban is temporary, Doylestown Township has long prohibited the burning of natural vegetation, ensuring additional protections year-round.
