City of Fort Saskatchewan makes decision on fire ban

Fort Saskatchewan has officially lifted its fire ban and implemented a fire restriction.

With the new restriction, here is what you can now use:

• Enclosed fire pits
• Charcoal Barbecues
• Heaters
• Pellet Smokers
• Fires in designated areas installed by the City of Fort Saskatchewan
• Solid fuel appliances
• Smudge fires

Burn permits and open burning are still restricted.

This comes after Sturgeon County and Strathcona County have announced similar restrictions.
