You will now need a permit to have a campfire in the City of Dryden.
Council has approved changes to the Open-Air Burning and Campfires bylaw, which now requires a one-time permit for a campfire, which comes at no cost to the applicant.
Fire Chief Kent Readman says, “The permit process allows us to ensure each person that’s going to have a fire, reads and understands the bylaw. They have to click-off that they’ve done that, and we would use this as an educational tool.”
Chief Administrative Officer Roger Nesbitt says the new rules are not only aimed at fire education and keeping the community safe but engaging residents.
