Durango Parks and Recreation Department, in coordination with Durango Fire Protection District and Twin Buttes, will conduct a controlled burn of slash piles from May 1 to May 31 in Twin Buttes Open Space when weather permits.
The maintenance project aims to burn slash piles from fire mitigation efforts with the goal to decrease wildfire risk.
The open space will remain open to the public during the prescribed burn. Users should be aware that Durango Fire Protection District staff and vehicles will be present in the area as work commences.
