Did you know the County of Kings has an Open Burning and Smoke Control By-Law (By-Law #63) in place to help keep our community safe?

Here are a few key points to remember:

🚫 Burning of garbage, construction materials, or petroleum products is not permitted
🔥 Any approved burning must be done safely and in accordance with regulations
💲 Violations of the by-law can result in fines

Also remember—provincial burn restrictions are in effect during wildfire season, and you should always check daily burn conditions before lighting any fire. (https://novascotia.ca/burnsafe/)

Let’s all do our part to keep our community safe and prevent unwanted fires. 🚒
