October 14, 2026 1:20pm
The Fire Chief has decided to amend today’s no burn day and allow burning for the rest of the day. Residents zoned agricultural for burning would still need follow instructions on our website (which is being updated now) to obtain a burn permit.

Information about burning and whether it is permitted today.

10/05/2026

The burn ban impacting Cleveland County for much of August and all of September has not been extended. Beginning tomorrow morning, we will return to our normal process for issuing burn permits for those who qualify, dependent on wind speeds staying no higher than 13mph and humidity at 40% or above.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

UPDATE - 7:15 AM 9/25/26: Utilities staff report that water towers are back to normal operating range. Residents can return to normal odd/even outdoor irrigation schedules. (Under an odd/even outdoor irrigation schedule, properties with addresses ending with an odd number may water on odd-numbered calendar days; properties with addresses ending with an even number may water on even-numbered calendar days.) Motorists are still advised to avoid Robinson around 24th NE as roadway access will be limited due to large repair equipment in the area.

UPDATE - 8:29 PM 9/24/26: The broken line has been isolated for further repair. A smaller parallel line is open to ensure water access for the community. Water conservation is requested until further notice. Outside irrigation and unnecessary water use should be avoided. Water tower capacity decreased significantly during this event and conservation measures will quicken restoration, while ensuring an adequate supply of water remains available for firefighting and life safety measures. Portions of Robinson are expected to remain closed through the night and alternate routes are advised. City of Norman employees working at facilities in the area will be able to gain access, as will residents of the Frost Creek development.

POSTED 7:20 PM 9/24/26: Crews are responding to a major waterline break in East Norman. A portion of Robinson east of 24th Avenue NE has been closed. Customers may experience water pressure issues at this time. Water conservation is requested for all Norman customers. Repairs will be carried out as quickly as possible. Updates will be made available as they are received at: https://www.normanok.gov/news/water-conservation-requested-crews-repair-line
