We work closely with Queensland Fire and Emergency Services and local Rural Fire Brigades to coordinate prescribed burns and hazard reduction burns to reduce fuel loads, at key locations across the Region.
There are currently no prescribed burns.
Council would like to apologise in advance for the smoke which will be produced from the fires.
Council recommends monitoring the smoke levels and direction each day and take actions to reduce smoke entering your house and affecting laundry. Council would also like to request landholders to clear out gutters and remove unwanted green waste from your backyards before this weekend. If conditions are not favourable close to the desired dates, the burns may not eventuate.
