All open fires, including small firepits, burning of stubble, and brush piles, are strictly prohibited.

Allowed with caution: BBQs, propane heaters, and propane fire rings with lava or glass rocks. Please use extreme care when operating these, ensuring you have a pail of water or fire extinguisher close by.

If you spot a fire, call 911 immediately. The fire department will be dispatched, and there is a minimum call-out charge of $1,000 to the property owner.

This fire ban remains in effect until further notice and will be re-evaluated weekly.

We appreciate your cooperation in helping to keep our community safe.

Temporary road closure – First Point Road – Tuesday, March 31

The RM Public works crew will be replacing a culvert on First Point Road Tuesday, March 31, in preparation for upcoming chip sealing this spring. Work is expected to begin around 10:00 a.m., once the fog lifts. The section of road just north of the North First Point access road will be closed during construction. Please see the map below for detour routes.

This work is expected to be completed today. Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

FIRE BAN HAS BEEN REMOVED

The local area has received sufficient moisture to remove the fire ban. However, we still recommend that all individuals wanting to burn utilize smart burning practices. These include:

  • Use a screen on your firepit
  • Extinguish your fire at night
  • If you are planning a controlled burn, please call the controlled burn line at 1-866-404-4911
  • Have a water supply nearby
