Emergency Alert 04-12-2023: FIRE PREVENTION AWARENESS
Spring weather has finally arrived and with that yard cleanup is in full effect and questions have started coming in about burning permits.
We recommend first all residents and businesses check out area fire danger by
1. Go to Wisconsin DNR Interactive Fire Danger Map and click on Chippewa County.
2. Drive past Wheaton Park / Wheaton Fire & Rescue frontage road sign along Wisconsin 29 South Frontage Road.
3. Follow Wheaton Fire & Rescue on Facebook.
Now back to the burning permit questions. Burning permits are NOT REQUIRED in the Town of Wheaton; however, you can only burn what is allowed by state law. Visit the Wisconsin DNR website at https://dnr.wi.gov/topic/openburning/ for burning regulations and several articles about burning alternatives.
Also all our burning and fire danger information questions with links can be found in the frequently asked questions section which is accessible from the townofwheaton.com homepage using the ? icon under the picture.
Thank you
