Spring open burning will open in Carson City on Saturday. The Carson City Fire Department says burning will be dependent upon permit status and daily weather conditions. Burning lasts through April 17. The open burn period is to allow residents the opportunity to dispose of accumulated weeds and yard debris. Carson City Fire Department will require a burn permit. Permits will be available starting Friday and can be obtained online at www.carson.org/openburn. Click the notice for Open Burn, which will take you to a form you will need to print and have on you when burning. This form will no longer be available at our administrative office on a walk-in basis. For additional questions or concerns call the Carson City Fire Department's Fire Prevention Division at 887-2210, ext. 7145 between 8 a.m-5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
