Don’t Wait or Hesitate! <br />If your recreational fire gets out of control, <br />don’t wait or hesitate. Call 911 <br />immediately. <br />Feel free to call the Fire Department at <br />651-747-3930 with any questions. <br />Be a good neighbor when <br />burning and consider your <br />neighbors, as well as wind <br />direction. Often times this <br />prevents unnecessary calls to <br />the fire department regarding <br />smoke. <br />Cleaner Alternatives <br />Learn about your options before <br />burning wood in your backyard. <br />Switching to natural gas or <br />propane reduces harmful air <br />pollutants. Kits that convert <br />existing fire rings and pits to <br />natural gas or propane burners <br />are available from local retailers. <br />Brush Disposal <br />Burning is not intended for the <br />purposes of clearing brush piles, <br />disposing of green leaved <br />branches from tree trimming, or <br />burning of leaves. <br />For more information regarding <br />brush disposal, please visit: Yard <br />Waste <br />2023 Seal Coat Project Underway <br />The City of Lake Elmo performed seal coating a number of city streets this <br />week. The map below shows the affected streets highlighted in pink. <br />The small trap rock chips will be swept up twice after the application and again at <br />the end of October and next spring. The seal coat application adds approximately 7 <br />years of life to the bituminous by keeping the moisture from entering the pores and <br />leaching into the sub grade. <br />Reminder: please travel safely around construction workers and trucks. <br />-Lake Elmo Public Works
