🚨 Statewide Burn Ban in Effect Until November 30 🚨

Due to the dry conditions and the recent wildfires across New York State, a Statewide Burn Ban is now in effect.

🔥 What does this mean?

🚫 Prohibited: Outdoor fires for brush and debris disposal, uncontained campfires, recreational fires, and open fires used for cooking.

✅Allowed: Backyard fire pits and campfires that are contained and smaller than 3 feet in height and 4 feet in width, length, or diameter, as well as small, contained cooking fires.

⚠️ Reminder: We remain under a Red Flag Warning!
This means conditions are still extremely dry, and the risk of wildfires is high.

Stay vigilant and follow all safety guidelines to protect your community.
