Rick Bangert - Fire Marshall - Mr. Bangert explained burning permits are issued by him for land clearing and other very lim- ited uses. He explained his process for determining if a permit should be issued. Residents who wish to apply for a permit pick up a packet at City Hall. This packet contains an appli- cation and materials explaining the fire code. Mr. Bangert told the Council of the three fires in Lino Lakes this past week. All the fires were illegal and cost a great deal in man hours. He explained he would like to see the burning ban enforced in Lino Lakes and suggested charging a fee for a burning permit to discourage open burning. He also sug- gested imposing a fine for burning without a permit. Mr. Bangert stated he did not feel the burning ban rule should be lessened, but made stiffer by imposing fees and fines.
