In an effort to save tax dollars, the Township Fire Department has adopted a series of guidelines to curb the growing problem of unnecessary fire calls.

Read our guidelines for controlled burns.

The Township requires all burns to be called into the Township Office. This helps us to make sure that fires are being performed in a safe way, as well as making sure that firefighters are only sent out to real fires - this saves money and makes sure that when a real fire happens, people and vehicles are available. Failure to call in a burn could mean that you'll be faced with the cost of sending firefighters out to your property.
