Warfield council is considering the development of regulations that would permit (residential) recreational burning.
Before making decisions, they want to hear what villagers think about this idea. An eight-question survey, which includes a comment box, is up now and available online until April 4 via the municipal website: Warfield.ca.
Council is hoping for a strong response as survey results will be used as a guide when considering future regulations and whether or not to proceed with a bylaw, or to prohibit open burning entirely.
“It will only take a few minutes of your time to complete the survey and your input is very important,” council said.
“Recreational burning” as referenced in the survey means a small controlled and properly contained fire that would be the equivalent to a campfire. Residential burning does not include the burning of yard waste such as leaves or any other types of open burning.
