PUSLINCH – On July 14 Puslinch Township announced it is allowing recreational camp/cooking fires during the currently-declared open air fire ban in the municipality.
“This is due to the rainfall and cooler temperatures that have occurred during the past few days,” officials said.
The forecasted lack of significant rainfall and continued hot and dry conditions mean other fire ban restrictions remain in place.
There will be no other open air burning permitted in the Township of Puslinch until further notice.
All open air fires are prohibited during a fire ban, including those properties that have a current 2020 Open Air Burn Permit.
This ban applies to fires set in open air, other than camp/cooking fires that comply with the restrictions of the township’s burning bylaw.
Those found to be in violation of the fire ban will be charged a fee for fire department response as it relates to the infraction.
