Jamestown City Fire Chief Jim Reuther says, the fire was reported under control at 3:35-p.m.  Damage was confined to a small area of grass next to the building, and tires on two bicyles parked in the fire area.

He said the probable cause was discarded smoking materials.

Five city fire units, and 23 fire fighters were on the scene about 10 minutes.

Chief Reuther asks residents to be extremely careful with smoking materials and other flamables with the extremely dry conditions.
