Willard Community Emergency Response Team (CERT)
Due to the elevated wildfire risk throughout Utah, Governor Spencer Cox issued an Executive Order allowing local officials to further restrict fireworks in areas where conditions present a significant fire danger. After reviewing local conditions, Mayor Travis Mote and Fire Chief Van Mund have determined that fireworks will be permitted only within a limited area of Willard City from July 2–5, in accordance with state law. No fireworks will be permitted during the Pioneer Day holiday (July 22–25) due to the current fire danger. These restrictions are intended to protect our residents, homes, agricultural lands, and surrounding open spaces while allowing for a safe Independence Day celebration.
