In Fall 2020, Township of South Frontenac Council was presented with a potential Open Air Burning Permit System and changes to the current Open Air Burning Bylaw. After discussion and consideration, Council directed staff to engage in public consultation and feedback regarding the potential changes.
The public consultation process will assist staff and Council in decisions that best meet the needs and circumstances of our community. Throughout this process, Staff and Council would like to get a better understanding of what questions and concerns residents have related to open air burning.

The Township of South Frontenac and South Frontenac Fire and Rescue (SFFR) are exploring the idea of updating the current Open Air Burning By-law No. 2012-68 and implementing a burn permit system to help reduce the risk of hazardous open air burning.
Your feedback through the following survey would be greatly appreciated, and will help guide the Township in making updates to open air burning. Responses to the following questions should only take 6-8 minutes, will remain completely anonymous, and will only be reported in summary.
Should you have any questions about this initiative, please contact SFFR at 613-376-3027 ext. 2234 or via email at fireadmin@southfrontenac.net.
