Fire Permits ~ Effective April 1st

Fire Permits for hand-piled yard waste fires, approved incinerators, and campfires are required from April 1st until November 1st.  

You may request a permit on-line after April 1st by going to thetisislandfire.ca and choosing the Fire Permit link on the left.  Because we do not have "operators standing by" at the computer for your request, please understand that it might take over 48 hours to process your on-line request so plan ahead accordingly.

Fire Permits are also available in person from Andy Lamb or Vicki Walker at our Solid Waste Recovery Site (the garbage dump) on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.  Andy and Vicki have graciously agreed to do this again under the direction of the TIVFD for your convenience.  Permits for April will be available at the site on this  Wednesday, March 30th.  

March has been marvellously wet, so we will be issuing the permits for the entire month of April.  The drying trend is starting this week, so we will be reconsidering length of permits at the end of that month.
