Conditions are dangerous for brush and outdoor fires. Please take precautions to prevent potential fires. Open burning is strictly prohibited in Newton including bonfires, brush burning, and any kind of outdoor fire. These activities significantly increase the risk of uncontrolled fires in dry conditions. Dispose of cigarettes in designated containers and ensure they are completely extinguished before disposal and avoid tossing cigarettes on the ground, especially in grassy or wooded areas.
