As we approach summer, the desire to light an outdoor fire becomes more common.

 

Many outdoor fires in Bible Hill are prohibited, including but not limited to those:

- in non-compliant fire pits;

- burning general, garden, or yard waste; or

- producing smoke found to be a nuisance to another person.

 

The by-law provides Bible Hill Fire Brigade the authority to enter upon any land to extinguish non-compliant fires, and fines between $100 and $5,000 are applicable. For further details, see the by-law.
