PETS MUST BE KEPT UNDER THE IMMEDIATE CONTROL OF THE OWNER AND ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ROAM AT LARGE OR OTHERWISE DISTURB THE PEACE.
The Kane County Nuisance Ordinance prohibits dogs from running at large. Sheriff Glover attended our June Board meeting and confirmed that his Officers will respond to problems with dogs.

Do I need a fishing or hunting license?
All hunters must possess either a valid Basic Hunting License or a Combination License before purchasing a more specific hunting permit. A Basic Hunting License is required to hunt Utah game animals. A Combination License is a combined Basic Hunting and Fishing License that is valid for 365 days from the date of purchase. In addition to either of these two licenses, many game animals require an additional hunting permit.
Are there laws against setting off fireworks?
Fireworks and explosives are prohibited in the National Forests. Only persons with a permit from the Forest Service may engage in these types of activities. Possessing, discharging, or using any kind of firework or other pyrotechnic device is prohibited.
