Burn Bans
What is a fire ban and why can I not have an open air fire when a fire ban is in effect?
A fire ban, based largely on environmental conditions, is a period of time during which no one may set or maintain any open air fire anywhere within the Township limits for reasons related to public safety and protection of property.
Sign up to receive alerts when a burn ban is in affect when you purchase your burn permit.
