Temporary burn ban lifted

The change in weather conditions has allowed for the temporary outdoor burn ban in place to be lifted, according to the Kansas City, Kan., Fire Department.

Kansas City, Kan., residents may apply for a burn permit at any Kansas City, Kan., Fire Station, according to a Fire Department spokesman.

The burn permit must be applied for 24 hours in advance of the intended burn day. All burn permit guidelines will be strictly enforced, the spokesman said. Residents are reminded to use extreme caution anytime during this open burn period, the Fire Department stated.

If weather conditions dictate, a burn ban may be enforced again, the spokesman said.
