Slash Burns
The Crystal Lakes Road & Recreation Association bans all slash burns on properties within the Association. This policy has the full support of the Crystal Lakes Fire Protection District. If you are a member of the Crystal Lakes Road & Recreation Association, you may not burn slash on your property.
Properties in the district which are not part of the Road & Recreation Association may burn slash only if they request and receive a Larimer County Open Burn Permit under the following district regulations:

Property owners in the floodplain should evacuate immediately if they hear this siren; all other property owners should remain on their lots, to keep the roads clear for those evacuating the floodplain.
Sirens in ALL parts of the association will sound the fire evacuation siren if a wildfire threatens the community -- it sounds like this alert sound:
