Residents on “Set” Status due to Quail Run Fire

The Yavapai County Office of Emergency Management (YCOEM) is working closely with the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office (YCSO) and the other fire agencies involved with the Quail Run Fire near Cordes Lakes, Arizona.

At this time, YCSO has put zones YCU-2324, YCU-2333, and YCU-2330 in the pre-evacuation SET status. SET means there is significant danger in your area. You should be prepared to leave if told to do so by evacuating authorities. You can be prepared by gathering essential supplies for you and those in your care, including pets and family members: prescriptions, important papers, priceless items, and personal items. Consideration should be given to any unique needs that you and your family have, or the special equipment your pets or livestock may require. Stay aware of the latest news and information from public safety officials and reputable sources.

Please be advised that fire apparatus and emergency vehicles are actively operating in the area. We urge all residents and travelers to ensure roads are kept clear for these vehicles to maneuver. Exercise caution when driving, and do not obstruct the path of emergency responders. Your cooperation is crucial in allowing them to reach affected locations quickly and safely.

The American Red Cross is setting up a temporary evacuation shelter site at Mayer High Schoollocated at 17300 E Mule Deer Dr, Spring Valley, AZ 86333 for individuals who have opted to leave their homes due to the fire conditions.

Sheltering for animals are available at the same location, at Mayer High School, provided by Animal Disaster Services.

We remind all Yavapai County residents of the importance of maintaining READY, preparing for, and staying aware of any possible hazards threatening your community, registering for the emergency notification system at www.ycsoaz.gov, making an emergency evacuation and communication plan, and following reputable and reliable sources for information.
