Fire Pit Policy
Outdoor fires are permissible within Town of Eston limits. Should conditions become too dry, a fire ban will be put into effect by the Town. Outdoor fires must be contained within a non-combustible appliance constructed of material that is at least 16 gauge or 1/16 inch thick. Wood burning pits should be covered with a heavy metal screen. The width of a fire pit cannot exceed 36 inches. Fires must be supervised at all times, with consideration given for the effects of smoke drifting on neighbours. Noise should also be considered. Only clean wood, propane and charcoal are permitted forms of fuel. Burning of all other materials is illegal.
