| What is a Burn Ban? |
A burn ban is exactly what
the name implies - no outside burning of any kind until the ban
is lifted by the Bella Vista Fire Department. If there is a County Wide Burn Ban,
no outside burning of any kind for a period of 60 (sixty) days from the
day the ban is issued or until it is lifted by the County
Judge. Open burning at this time is considered
extremely dangerous to people, buildings, trees and grasslands and violations
are very serious, punishable by fines
and/or imprisonment. You may contact the Department of Emergency
Management at (479) 271-1004 for more information.
