Burn Permits 

If you live inside the city limits, you MUST have a burn permit to burn. 

There are two types of permits that can be obtained.

Approved Container Permit:

  • Cost: $5.00
  • Valid for 1 year
  • Container must be closed metal, brick, concrete, or rock container with a wire mesh screen cover no greater than one inch mesh, over such container
