Pitkin County will implement Stage 2 Fire Restrictions starting at 12:01 a.m. on Friday. This decision was announced during a joint meeting of the Aspen City Council and the Board of County Commissioners on Monday.

The move to Stage 2 follows the county's previous entry into Stage 1, which occurred on June 10. Pitkin County Sheriff Michael Buglione is set to enact the new restrictions.

Further information about the Stage 2 Fire Restrictions can be found through Pitkin County sources, as details are limited at this time.
