Bracebridge has declared a municipal fire ban
It’s in addition to the one put in place by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests (MNRF).
It means no burning is allowed of any kind in Bracebridge.
The ban is to help limit interaction between MNRF and municipal firefighters with the public during the COVID-19 pandemic and to minimize the chances of human caused fires.
