No burning permits will be issued for the City of Butler until further notice. As our dry weather continues we are asking that everyone refrain from conducting any outside burning. 

Over the next few days the temperatures will continue to rise and the humidity will drop. Friday winds are forecasted to be at least 25 mph.

PLEASE REFRAIN FROM ALL BURNING OUTSIDE until we receive a significant measurable amount of rain. Thank you.

Please refrain from burning tomorrow and this weekend

Tomorrow & including this weekend should be warm and windy across our area. We are asking that everyone refrain from conducting ANY outside burning. This means don't burn trash, grass, leave, fields, tree limbs / brush etc. 

Please don't throw your cigarette butts out the window. No fire pits or bonfires. A small "controlled" burn can quickly get out of control because of the severe dry and windy conditions. If your going to use a BBQ grill please use extreme caution.. 

PLEASE REFRAIN FROM ALL BURNING OUTSIDE until we receive a significant measurable amount of rain. Please share this post to get the word out. Thank you!
