Fire Ban in Effect

Effective immediately, a fire ban is in effect in Central Elgin. 

This fire ban is being implemented due to ongoing poor air quality conditions resulting from wildlife smoke. 

Smoke from outdoor fires can worsen air quality and pose serious health risks, especially for children, older adults and people with respiratory or heart conditions.
