The Highway 286 East Fire Department wants to provide a friendly reminder that we are currently under a burn ban. During a burn ban, open burning of any kind is unlawful and will not be tolerated. With that being said, we would like to encourage our residents to be mindful of several things. During the current conditions, some activities that are permitted by law still pose an incredible threat to our community. For example, improper disposal of cigarette butts and outdoor grilling can become a major problem very quickly. We urge residents to use extreme caution during these conditions, as resources are very limited. The Highway 286 East Fire Department responded to 9 calls for service in a 12 hour period today, March 19, 2025, 6 of which were related to negligent burning. We appreciate the cooperation of our residents going forward, as we remain under extreme conditions.
