Fire Ban Issued for Uxbridge

Due to extreme heat and dry weather, the Township of Uxbridge has imposed a fire ban on all open-air burning effectively immediately. Open flames at this time risk causing serious damage to property and the environment.  

No new fire permits will be issued until the ban is lifted. 

Open air burning includes the use of burn barrels, outdoor fireplaces, and cooking fires, as well as fires in pits. Portable outdoor fire appliances are not approved for use in Uxbridge at any time. Residents may still use a barbeque.
