Safety & Preparedness

Every owner on the Mountain is responsible for contributing to and fostering a safe environment in which we can live and play. Common sense and some advance planning provide a good start for promoting a safe and pleasant place for all owners, our families and friends.

To insure the safety of the mountain, our owners and our guests, the following are strictly forbidden:

  • OPEN FIRES NOT IN A FIREPIT

  • FIREWORKS

  • DISCHARGING FIREARMS

  • OUTSIDE BURNING OF ANY MATERIALS

  • IGNITING ANY TYPES OF FUEL

No Open Fires or Fireworks

UWPOA has a Zero-Tolerance Open Fires and Fireworks Policy. We must take this seriously – the consequences may be too great! Please remind your family, guests and neighbors of our rules and the reason we have them. Report any dangerous activity (especially during wildfire season) to Sheriff at (xxx) xxx-xxxx and, when necessary, the Fire Department at 911 – both of whom will issue citations.

xxxEmergency Notification System

Utah County has created a communications system that notifies residents of local emergency situations, such as fire, flood, toxic environmental issues and other urgencies. This system is a “reverse 911” notification. As you know, in the event of an emergency, you can dial 911 and be connected with police, fire or medical emergency dispatchers. With the Emergency Notification System, the County will contact you to inform you of an emergency in the area. UWPOA owners can register with the County to be placed in the Emergency Notification database. You can elect to be notified by text, email, or by a call to your home, mobile or work.
