The only outdoor fires that do not require a burn permit are those for the purpose of cooking food on a grill or barbecue or those that are small, confined and supervised at all times. All other open air fires require a permit. A backyard bonfire might or might not require a permit based on its size and containment.
You can now Purchase your Agricultural/Land Clearing and Brush Fire Burn Permits Online or you can apply online and come to the Township office to pay. Brush fire permits cost $15 and are valid until the end of the calendar year.
A Fire Department Compliance Letter is based on a site inspection of the property by the Fire Chief, or designate, to ascertain compliance with Fire Code Requirements. The Fire Chief will also confirm if there are any outstanding fire-related work orders in the property file.
